Lyrics

[00:00.80] Why must happy hearts break so hard,
[00:09.66] leave you curled up in the back seat of a car,
[00:16.46] staring up at the windshield?
[00:24.30] When will broken hearts learn how to heal?
[00:31.85] This boy I knew was five years older than me.
[00:40.34] His daddy’d left him when he was three.
[00:47.42] After we went walking by a stream,
[00:55.04] he held me down and made me feel as bad as he.
[01:02.86] Why must happy hearts break so hard,
[01:11.59] leave you standing in the darkness of the barn,
[01:19.38] staring at those rusty wheels?
[01:26.28] When will broken hearts learn how to heal?
[02:05.31] And everybody’s searching for a place to put their love.
[02:12.46] See the people on the street?
[02:15.03] They go home and what do you think they dream of?
[02:20.20] Unconditional love.
[02:28.02] Why did you leave me?
[02:42.73] Mother, why do you sleep with him?
[02:50.50] He says he’s smothering,
[02:53.25] then he comes back again,
[02:58.73] in our house for the weekend.
[03:05.45] Why must people’s breaking hearts pretend?
[03:13.18] Why must happy hearts break so hard,
[03:21.92] leave you staring in the mirror at a bar?
[03:29.49] Leave you talking to yourself,
[03:36.02] because you can’t talk to anybody
