With Or Without You
I don't wanna live without you
God, it hurts to be alone
But livin' with you or without you
Cuts my poor heart to the bone
'Cause my heart gets broken everytime we fall
There's only so much left unshattered
This time I know my back's against the wall
But the truth's the only thing
That matters anymore
I'm scared in a crowd of people
And you're afraid to be alone
I have prayed you'd be beside me
I guess I'm meant to stand alone
Oh, cause our heart's get broken
Everytime we fall
They're beaten down and battered
You're so afraid you don't deserve it all
But you're not the only thing that matters anymore
How can I live without you in my heart
When I walk out this time
It'll tear me apart
My heart gets broken everytime we fall
There's only so long I can fake it
'Cause you let me go babe
We could have had it all
We had a chance
I thought we'd make it
'Cause I gave my heart
You had to break it
God give me the strength
I just can't take it anymore

Only A Broken Heart
Here comes that feeling Ive se en in your eyes
Back in the old days before the hard times
But Im not afraid anymore
Its only a broken heart
I know the place where you keep your secrets
Out of the sunshine, down in a valley
But Im not afraid anymore
I ts only a broken heart
What would I give to start all over again
To clean up my mistakes
Stand in the moonlight, stand under heaven
Wait for an answer, hold out forever
But dont be afraid anymore
Its only a broken hear t
What would I give to start all over again
To clean up my mistakes
I know your weakness, youve seen my dark side
The end of the rainbow is always a long ride
But dont be afraid anymore
Its only a broken heart

Everytime I Fall
(johnny mcrae/steve clark)
Let me tell you 'bout a lady that i know
Who stood tall and proud beside me
Down many a dead end road
Never asking more than i could give
And never once complaining
About the way we had to live
Well she never showed a sign of losing hope
Though a million dreams and promises
Have all gone up in smoke
She hides her disappointment out of love
And if i laid the whole world at her feet
It wouldn't be enough
She's the rock i lean on through it all
Everytime i stumble
Everytime i fall
And though she's never shown it
I've known it from the start
Everytime i fall it breaks her heart
Everytime i fall
It breaks her heart
Now let me tell you about the million silent tears
I've found hidden on her pillow
In the mornings through the years
Somehow i'm still a hero in her eyes
But to tell the truth
I can't give you one good reason why
She's the rock i lean on through it all
Everytime i stumble
Everytime i fall
And though she's never shown it
I've known it from the start
Everytime i fall it breaks her heart
Everytime i fall
It breaks her heart

Only My Heart Talkin
Anybodys dream can fall apart
Anybodys mask can break
Couldnt tell you how I wanted

Enough to make you want to stay

Baby, give me one more chance
Before you walk away
Its only, only, only, only my heart

Heart talkin
Sayin things I never thought id

Cant you hear me knocking
Tried to fool you but it wouldnt
Play
Cuz my heart its talkin, its talkin
Baby, its talkin
Talkin to you
Everytime I take it to the edge
Everytime Im so afraid
Dont you know I cry my eyes
Out, babe
Everytime you look away
Oh, I almost dropped a tear
But I caught it just in time
Id say those things you want to
Hear
If youd help me, help me, help
Me try
Its only, only, only, only my heart
Talkin
Yeah, its only, only, only, only my
Heart talkin
Sayin things I never thought id
Say
Cant you hear me knocking
Tried to fool you but it wouldnt

Hide away without you, baby

Here's My Heart
my heart has heard You say
'oh, come and talk with me'
and my heart responds from deep within
'my precious Lord, I'm coming.'
so here's my heart, Father, here's my heart
You have filled it so deeply I cannot contain it anymore
here's my heart, Father, here's my heart
now I offer it up to be broken and changed
Lord, I ask that You mold me and use me
here's my heart
I long for a pure heart,
that I might see Your face
a broken and contrite spirit
that I might know Your grace
so here's my heart, Father, here's my heart
You have filled it so deeply I cannot contain it anymore
here's my heart, Father, here's my heart
now I offer it up to be broken and changed,
Lord, I ask that You mold me and use me
here's my heart
I know that it's broken and bleeding
a little bruised and cracked from a fall
I've torn off some pieces and handed them out
but to You, I give it all
so here's my heart.

Edge Of A Broken Heart
And there I stood, just like a soldier
I was tough, until I saw her
I said hello, but she just turned away
Hey romeo, whatcha doin with my girl,
Who are you using now, well I turn and walk away (turn and walk away)
Im gonna please her, now you can believe it
Ill be there to catch her when she falls
Oooo, here I am (on the edge of a broken heart)
Im a man (on the edge of a broken heart)
Here we stand (on the edge of a broken heart)
So run if you can cause you know
Im a man on the edge (on the edge of a broken heart)
Im on the edge (on the edge of a broken heart)
Im on the outside, looking inside
Youre with him, whos on the wrong side now
Do you still think of me
Ive tried to call, but no one answers
Two silhouettes, a private dancer
Lights go dim, as the music starts to fade, away (turn and walk away)
Im the one who needs you, now you can believe it
Ill be there to catch you when you fall
Ooo you better believe Im the man (on the edge of a broken heart)
Here I am (on the edge of a broken heart)
And we stand (on the edge of a broken heart)
So run if you can cause you know
Im a man on the edge (on the edge of a broken heart)
Im on the edge (on the edge of a broken heart)
Solo
Ooohh
And when I hold out my hands Ill be reaching for you
I give it all that Ive got, thats all I can do
When youre waiting for love
Ill be waiting for you (on the edge of a broken heart)
Only for you (on the edge of a broken heart)
Oh baby for you (on the edge of a broken heart)
So run if you can, you know
Im a man on the edge (on the edge of a broken heart)
Im on the edge (on the edge of a broken heart)
Im on the edge (on the edge of a broken heart)
Im on the edge (of a broken, broken, broken broken, broken, broken, broken)

Every Time We Fall
(k. hain/m. goldenberg)
Here we are at the crossroads again
And neither of us knows the right way
So here we go trying to get by
The limits of our yesterdays
And if it brings us down
It wouldnt be the first time
Over and over, we put our hearts on the line
Chorus:
Everytime we fall
We get a little stronger, baby
Everytime we walk away
It hurts a little more
Someday we may find
We can make it last this time
Until then, we give it all
Everytime we fall (ohh)
When youre gone
Still burning me
And Im jealous of the sun that warms you
And still I know
Im walkin in your dreams
And I aint seen the last of you
Coz theres a part of you
That never really leaves
Over and over
You keep coming back to me
(repeat chorus)
Bridge:
When one road ends
Theres always another one to try
So were goin through these changes
Time and time again
You and me, theres no good-bye
No good-bye
(instrumental)
Coz theres a part of you
That never really leaves
Over and over
You keep coming back to me
Everytime we fall, ohhh
I feel its getting stronger, baby
Stronger, baby. stronger, baby
(repeat chorus)
Everytime we fall
(only makes us stronger)
Everytime we walk away
(hurts just a little bit more)
Someday we may find
(we can make it last this time)
Until then we give it all
Everytime we fall
Everytime we fall
(we get a litle stronger baby)
Everytime we walk away
(hurts just a little bit more)
Someday we may find
We can make it, we cam make it
Until then we give it all
Everytime we fall

Moment To Moment
Too many nights of isolation
Too many echoes in my head
Too many fires left burning
In this bed
Too many thoughts of desperation
So much pain deep down below
So mych a slave to my senses
I cant let go
From moment to moment
I live and I die
This cant go on anymore
Another day, another lie
From moment to moment
I stand and I fall
This cant go on anymore
Unless we both give it all
I ask you how can a man keep his distance
How can he reason with his heart
How can you hold me so near
Yet keep me so far
From moment to moment
I live and I die
This cant go on anymore
Another day, another lie
From moment to moment
I stand and I fall
This cant go on anymore
Unless we both give it all
Sometimes Id like to break you down
To see if theres a trace of woman in you that could be found
But I just keep prayin youll come around
And live from moment to moment
I live from moment to moment
I live from moment to moment
So much a slave to my senses
I cant let go
From moment to moment
I live and I die
This cant go on anymore
Another day, another lie
From moment to moment
I stand and I fall
This cant go on anymore
Unless we both give it all
You know I want to give it all
I live from moment to moment
Everyday of my life
I live from moment to moment

Of A Broken Heart
If only I die
Just once in my life
If only to try
To take a guess, to be the best
A feeling I hide
That runs this world, that keeps us alive
I want you to climb with me
Until I die of a broken heart
A broken heart
Until I die of a broken heart
A broken heart
Until I die
The heart of a child
Is in your hands now
So lets see you smile
cause Im not impressed with your loneliness
And its been a while
Since you forgave all your changes made
So lets count the miles together
Until I die of a broken heart
A broken heart
Until I die of a broken heart
A broken heart
Until I die of a broken heart
A broken heart
Until I die
If only I die
Just once in my life
If only to try together
Until I die of a broken heart
A broken heart
Until I die of a broken heart
A broken heart
Until I die of a broken heart
A broken heart
Until I die

It's Just Not For Me
I've finally figured out that love doesn't work for me
I get hurt everytime
My feelings get crushed everytime
I've had enough of this
Love just isn't for me
Im not opening up anymore
This store is closed for business
Im not letting my emotions show anymore
I've never shead a tear for anyone
What you thought I was going to cry over you?
You've got to be kidding me
Yeah ill admitt i was in love
But i've had my heart broken before
So this is not nothing new to me
Im not going to lose sleep over you
Im not going to think about what we could of been
Im not even going to think about you period
Once it's over its a done deal
Dont come crying back to me
I dont ever give second chances
Once you say those words
You know what im talking about
'It's over'
Oh how I really hate those words
But I'll forgive but wont forget
Im moving on I dont need you.

I can see the pain livin in your eyes
And I know how hard ya try
You deserve to have so much more
I can feel your hurt and I sympothize
And Ill never critosize all you meant to my life
I dont wanna let ya down
I dont wanna lead you on
I dont wanna hold ya back
From where you might belong
*~chorus~*
You would never ask me why
My heart is so disguise
I just cant live a lie anymore
I would rather hurt myself
Than to ever make you cry
Theres nothing left to say...
But good-bye
You deserve a chance at the kind of love
And that your unworthy of
Losing you is painful for me
I dont wanna let ya down
I dont wanna lead you on
I dont wanna hold ya back
From where you might belong

You would never ask me why
My heart is so disguise

My heart is so disguise
I just cant live a lie anymore

Theres nothing left to try
Though its gonna hurt us both
Theres no other way...
Than to say good-bye

Matters Of The Heart
I lose my head
From time to time
I make a fool of myself
In matters of the heart
We should have been holding each other
Instead we talked
I make a fool of myself
In matters of the heart
But I asked before
Your reply was kind and polite
One wants more
When ones denied
I make a fool of myself
In matters of the heart
I wont call it love
But it feels good to have passion in my life
If theres a battle
I hope my head always defers to my heart
In matters of the heart
I guess Im crazy to think
I can give you what you dont want
I make a fool of myself
In matters of the heart
I wish that I had the power
To make these feelings stop
I lose all self control
In matters of the heart
I cant believe
Its so hard to find someone
To give affection to
And from whom you can receive
I guess its just the draw of the cards
In matters of the heart
You caught me off guard
Somehow you reached me
Where I thought I had nothing left inside
Ive learned my lesson Ive been edified
In matters of the heart
Ive spent my nights
Where the sleeping dogs lie
Not by your side
It feels so lonely
Once again Ive left to much to chance
In matters of the heart
Here I sit
Im feeling sorry for myself
Its quite a sight
But I have you to thank
For reminding me
Were all alone in this world
And in matters of the heart
Im already missing you
Although we wont say good byes
Until tomorrow afternoon
Maybe when and if I see you again
Well see eye to eye
In matters of the heart
I have no harsh words for you
I have no tears to cry
If the moon were full
Id be howling inside
It only hurts
In matters of the heart
If today were my birthday
Id be reborn
As brontes bird a bird that could fly
And all accounts would be settled
In matters of the heart
Matters of the heart

Everytime
I'm afraid I'm starting to feel
What I said I would not do
The last time really hurt me
I'm scared to fall in love
Afraid to love so fast
'Cause everytime I fall in love
It seems to never last
But every time your love is near
And every time I'm filled with fear
'Cause everytime I see your face
My heart does begin to race every time
One half want me to go
Other half wants me to stay
I just get so all confused
I'm scared to fall in love
Afraid to love so fast
'Cause every time I fall in love
It seems to never last
But every time your love is near
And every time I'm filled with fear
'Cause every time
My heart does begin to race every time
I'm scared to fall in love
Afraid to love so fast
'Cause every time I fall in love
It seems to never last
Every time your love is near
And every time I'm filled with fear
'Cause every time I see your face
My heart does begin to race every time
Every time your love is near
And every time I'm filled with fear
'Cause every time I see your face
Could it be that this will be the one that lasts
The fear does start to erase every time
Oh could it be that this will be the one that lasts
For all my times
For all my times

Hurt
Leaving him hurt
hurts more than a broken bone
and then you came along
so perfect so sweet
and then so quickly you disappeared
my heart already shattered lost hope
leaving me crushed into pieces
I thought I could heal
once again become whole with you
but it looks ill only be hurt once more
now in pieces I sit an I burn
slowly turning into ashes
my heart is no more
for I lost hope to ever love again
because everytime I do I'm hurt
I can't feel loved anymore
as I never was before
I can no longer love
as I don't know how to anymore
this will leave me torn
for the rest of my days
as I can no longer have your heart
all I have is pain
the pain that's left behind
and that feeling no one needs
that feeling of being hurt

October
I can't run anymore,
I fall before you.
Here I am.
I have nothing left.
Though I've tried to forget,
You're all that I am.
Take me home,
I'm through fighting it.
Broken, Lifeless,
I give up.
You're my only strength.
Without you,
I can't go on,
Anymore, Ever again
*My only hope (All the times I've tried)
My only peace (To walk away from you)
My only joy, My only strength,
(I fall into your abounding grace)
My only power, My only life,
(And love is where I am) My only love.
I can't run anymore.
I give myself to you,
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
In all my bitterness,
I ignored all that's real and true.
All I need is you.
When night falls on me,
I'll not close my eyes.
I'm too alive,
And you're too strong.
I can't lie anymore,
I fall down before you.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
*
Constantly ignoring the pain consuming me.
But this time it's cut too deep.
I'll never stray again.

Edge Of A Broken Heart
I cant believe I couldve been so blind,
But love is strange.
I thought about it for a long, long time,
But the truth remains.
I dont need another lonely night to dry my tears.
The answers plain as black and white,
And I can see the picture very clear.
Ive been livin on the edge of a broken heart.
I dont wanna fall, I dont wanna crawl.
Ive been livin on the edge of a broken heart.
Dont you wonder why I gotta say goodbye?
It isnt like you never had the chance
To change your tune.
Did you think that Im a dime a dance?
Well the dance is through.
Ive been doin things your way too long,
But baby thats over.
It wont be easy, but Ive gotta be strong,
And if I wanna cry I dont need your shoulder.
Ive been livin on the edge of a broken heart.
I dont wanna fall, I dont wanna crawl.
Ive been livin on the edge of a broken heart.
Dont you wonder why I gotta say goodbye?
Ill find someone else whos nothing like you.
Two can play the game as well,
And youre gonna be sorry, baby,
When its over!

But baby thats over.
It wont be easy but Ive gotta be strong,
And if I wanna cry I dont need your shoulder.

Dont Break My Heart Again
(coverdale)
Im gonna take it to the limit of my love,
Before I turn and walk away
Ive had enough of holding on
The promises of yesterday
Every day of my life, it seems,
Troubles knocking at my door,
Its hard to try and satisfy
When you dont know what youre fighting for
Time and again I sing your song,
But, Ive been runnin on empty far too long
Ive had enough holdin on to the past,
Make no mistake, it could be your last
Dont break my heart again, like you did before
Dont break my heart again, I couldnt take anymore
I never hide the feeling inside,
And though Im standing my back to the wall,
I know that even in a summer love
A little bit of rain must fall
But, every road I take I know
Where its gonna lead me to,
Because Ive travelled every highway
And they all keep coming back to you
Time and again I sing your song,
But, Ive been runnin on empty far too long
Ive had enough holdin on to the past,
Make no mistake, it could be your last
Dont break my heart again, like you did before
Dont break my heart again, I couldnt take anymore
Dont break my heart
Dont break my heart again, like you did before
Dont break my heart again, I couldnt take anymore

How Does It Feel
Mornings here
I feel so far away
It seems like I felt this before
All alone
Sun burns my skin
I cant live with pain anymore
And with you on my mind
Thinking of all that weve said
Were they just words
Well live to regret
Why wont you stay?
How does it feel
To make me fall apart
Could this be love
Or just a broken heart
How do you feel
When you see me cryin again
Times have changed
Is love at an end?
What makes us wonder why?
Rearranged
Just pretend
I cant stand the thought of goodbyes
And with you on my mind
Thinking of all that weve said
Were they just words
Well live to regret
Why wont you stay?
How does it feel
To make me fall apart
Could this be love
Or just a broken heart
How do you feel
When you see me cryin again
How does it feel
To make me fall apart
Could this be love
Or just a broken heart
How do you feel
When you see me cryin again

Love Is All That Matters
(diane warren)
Sometimes we make each other cry
Sometimes were locked inside the prisons of our pride
Sometimes we break each others heart with the words we say
Let anger get in the way too many times
But always after all
Love is all that matters
After everything
One thing remains the same
One thing we cannot change
We all have one heart
And one heart needs another
Love, love is all that matters
Love is all that matters
It matters after all
Sometimes we search this world for gold
When all we really need is just a hand to hold
Sometimes we let the greatest treasure just slip away
With words we forget to say too many times
But always after all
Love is all that matters
After everything
One thing remains the same
One thing we cannot change
We, we all have one heart
And one heart needs another
Love, love is all that matters
Love is all that matters
It matters after all
After all that weve been through
It comes down to one simple truth
You need me, I need you
cause love is all that matters
Love is all that matters
Love is all that matters
It matters after all
Love is all that matters
Its the only thing that matters
It matters after all
Love is all that matters
