The Way We Make A Broken Heart
(john hiatt)
Just a one more kiss
Hell have to miss
This night with you
Now youre guilty of this secret love as I am too
Youll get used to telling lies
And feeling sorry when he cries
Now that the strings are attached
Hell catch on, weve done our part
cause this is the way we make a broken heart
Lesson number one
Weve just begun
To hurt him so
And with lesson two
Hell long for you
When lights are low
Then we get to lesson three
Where he gets down on his knees
And begs you to stop at the door
Just before he comes apart
And this is the way we make a broken heart
Now weve layed a trail of tears
For him to follow
And weve thought of every line
That he might swallow
And with lesson four
Therell be no more
For him to bear
And on some dark night
Well dim the lights
On this affair
Then hell find somebody new
And she will hurt him too
cause there must be millions just like you and me
Practiced in the art
This is the way we make a broken heart
Oh, this is the way we make a broken heart
This is the way we make a broken 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)

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

Lets Mend Whats Been Broken
We started out with a new love
And we thought we had more control
And as it turned to an old love
Bad times started to unfold
Now I dont want to let you go
And I dont want it to ever end
So if feelings have been torn and if hearts have been broken
Lets put it back together again
Ooh, weve got to
Lets mend whats been broken
You and me, me and you
Lets mend whats been broken
Ooh, yeah
Now Im not ready for new love
cause you make my life so complete
And if theres any problem
I know we wont suffer deeply
cause I dont want to let you go
I dont want it to ever end
So if feelings have been torn and if hearts have been broken
Lets put it back together again
Uh-huh, weve got to
Lets mend whats been broken
Me and you, you and me
Lets mend whats been broken
Ooh, yeah
Dont throw it all away
Lets keep this love in every way
Mend my heart, my achin heart
The thought of a brand new start tears me all apart
The love weve got, dont let it end
We can put it back together again
[and lets do it]
[lets do it]
Lets mend whats been broken [lets get to it]
Lets mend whats been broken [lets get to it]
[lets do it]
[lets do it]
[lets do it]
[lets do it]
[lets do it]
[lets get to it]
Lets mend whats been broken [lets get to it]
You and me
Lets mend whats been broken [lets get to it]

Been Here Once Before
Got your back up against the wall
Now you know that after all
When you make mistakes like that
Theres no more turning back
Now weve gone and weve lost our heads
Youre better off just playing dead
Why you wearing that black hat
Theres no point in turning back
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before
Well all you know is you need to win
Should you go when your call comes in
Once you see all the blood that flows
I dont think youll be winning more
Now I thought that was all in the past
And that beast would come back last
Once again we are at war
Yes I know weve been here before
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before...thats for sure
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before
And I dont think youll be winning more
Weve been here once before
Weve been here thats for sure
I dont think youll be winning more
Weve been here once before
Weve been here thats for sure
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before...thats for sure
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before
And I dont think youll be winning more
Weve been here once before
Weve been here thats for sure
I dont think youll be winning more
Weve been here once before
Weve been here thats for sure
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before
Been here once before...

I Know Him By Heart
Paul williams and jon vezner
Theres a secret path I follow
To a place no one can find
Where I meet my perfect someone
Ive kept hidden in my mind
Where my heart makes my decisions
till my dream becomes a vision
And the love I feel
Makes him real someday
Cause I know hes out there somewhere
Just beyond my reach
Though Ive never really touched him
Or ever heard him speak
Though weve never been together
Weve never been apart
No weve never met
Havent found him yet
But I know him by heart
Am I living an illusion?
Wanting something I cant see
If I compromise, Id be living lies
Pretending hes not meant to be
Cause I know my hearts worth saving
And I know that hell be waiting
So Ill hold on and Ill stay strong till then
Cause I know hes out there somewhere
Just beyond my reach
Though Ive never really touched him
Or ever heard him speak
Though weve never been together
Weve never been apart
No weve never met
Havent found him yet
But I know him by heart
No weve never met
Havent found him yet
But I know him by heart

All The Things Weve Never Done
(craig bickhardt/jeff pennig)
They drank their anniversary glass
A silent moment passed
Then they kissed
She knows theres something on his mind
Hell tell her in due time
What it is
He says Ive never built
Your mansion on a hill
Or warmed you in the spanish sun
I simply blink my eye
And think as years fly by
Of all the things weve never done
She smiles and takes his hand in hers
And says it just occured
To me now
The thought that brings you such regret
What hasnt happened yet
It makes me proud...
You never walked away
When I needed you to stay
Or made me feel Im not the one
Thereve been no broken vows
And there reason were here now
Is all the things weve never done
Weve never grown apart
You never broke my heart
With secrets that youve kept me from
Weve never been untrue
And Im still here with you
Through all the things weve never done

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

It Takes Love
Written by glen burtnik, bob berger
Lead vocals by dennis deyoung
Sometimes its hard to smile
Keep looking back
Searching for somebody
Who once was in your life
Baby let him go now
Therell be something better ahead
It takes love to make love
You cant hide behind your broken heart
It takes love to make love
Let the light of another lover shine on you
We all have tears to cry
But there comes a day
To leave your tears behind you
And give your heart
Someplace to start
And if you find your way there
Therell be someone waiting for you
It takes love to make love
You cant hide behind your broken heart
It takes love to make love
Let the light of another lover shine on you
Like a river
That flows
To the sea
Dont wait
Like a river
Flowing down
Whoa...hey...ooh...ah...ooh
It takes love to make love
You cant hide behind your broken heart
It takes love to make love
Let the light of another lover shine on you
It takes love to make love
Never mind the broken heart baby
It takes love to make love
Let the light of another lover shine on you

Broken Heart
I hurt inside
My heart is broken
in two...
My heart needs
Too be mended, by
my man..
The one and only
True Love of mine
Doesn`t think he can make
Me happy anymore...
Two and A half years
I gave my heart to him
He is my true Love
My life is so incomplete
Without my true Love....
Broken Heart.Broken Heart, Broken Heart...

Time Mends A Broken Heart
(jeff lynn/ kiki dee)
Producer for bonnie: christopher neil
Im living in another time another place
I knew you then
It used to be a different world
And now I start to live again
A sight of heaven in a grain of sand
Leading me on taking me by the hand
Time mends a broken heart
Time mends a broken heart
Love tears it all apart
But time mends a broken heart
I see you in another life
Theres someone else that I didnt know
Theres someone else that I dont know
It used to hurt me deep inside
I had to learn to let you go
I thought that happiness was by your side
I didnt know that it was here in me
And still alive
Time mends a broken heart
Time mends a broken heart
Love tears it all apart
But time mends a broken heart
Time mends a broken heart
Time mends a broken heart
Love tears it all apart
But time mends a broken heart

Tell My Broken Heart That
Tell My Broken Heart That
When you told me you
Loved me was that true
Was your heart really
For me or was it all just
A lie to
Tell My Broken Heart That
How come when you said
You will not hurt me
You turn around and do it
Anyways lets just
Face it you don't keep
Your promises when you say
You do keep them
Tell My Broken Heart That
So thanks again for leaving
Me I will just try
To find my broken heart
Pieces that you through all over
You will not help me
Find them right well
Why don't you
Tell My Broken Heart That

Follow You Down
(scott johnson, bill leen, phillip rhodes, jesse valenzuela, robin wilson)
Did you see the sky
I think it means that weve been lost
Maybe one less time is all we need
I cant really help it if my tongues all tied in knots
Jumping off a bridge, its just the farthest that Ive ever been
Anywhere you go, Ill follow you down
Anyplace but those I know by heart
Anywhere you go, Ill follow you down
Ill follow you down, but not that far
I know were headed somewhere, I can see how far weve come
But still I cant remember anything
Lets not do the wrong thing and Ill swear it might be fun
Its a long way down when all the knots weve tied have come undone
Anywhere you go, Ill follow you down
Anyplace but those I know by heart
Anywhere you go, Ill follow you down
Ill follow you down, but not that far
How you gonna ever find your place
Running in an artificial pace
Are they gonna find us lying face down in the sand
So what the hell now, weve already been forever damned
Anywhere you go Ill follow you down...

I Cant Stop Loving You
I cant stop loving you
By don gibson
Those happy hours that we once knew,
Though long ago, still make me blue.
They say that time heals a broken heart.
But time has stood still since weve been apart.
I cant stop loving you
So Ive made up my mind
To live in memory
Of old lone-some times.
I cant stop wanting you
Its use-less to say.
So Ill just live my life
In dreams of yesterday.
Those happy hours that we once knew,
Though long ago, still make me blue.
They say that time heals a broken heart.
But time has stood still since weve been apart.
I cant stop loving you,
Theres no use to try.
Pretend thers some one new;
I cant live a lie.
I cant stop wanting you
The way that I do.
Thers only been one love for me,
That one love is you.

Or Take Me There
the sun pours over like a wave
feeling as good as they say
they told me to nurse your broken heart
but you say:
take take take or go to hell
take take take or take me there
but dont
dont touch my heart
(my heart, my heart)
the leaves cast shadows on my skin
taking the sunlight in
they told me to nurse your broken heart
but you say:
take take take or go to hell
take take take or take me there
but dont
dont touch my heart
(my heart, my heart)
the breeze hits smooth across my face
holding your hand, i cant replace
this moment for any other
but you say:
take take take or go to hell
take take take or take me there
but dont
dont touch my heart

Make Love Work
Of all the roads Ive traveled and all the sights Ive seen
The most amazing thing is the power of our dreams
And anything is possible for those who can believe
Just get your heart to rearrange its priorities
For us to make love work
Weve got to try a little harder
And for love to work we gotta hold on
A human heart is just too precious
To spend it feeling hurt
Lets start to take the chance to make love work
It takes faith in one another to see things eye to eye
And its hard to trust but you know its worth the try
Theres a candle in my window and whenever you feel blue
You can bet your bottom dollar Ill be there for you
For us to make love work
Weve got to try a little bit harder
And for love to work we gotta hold on
A human heart is just too precious
To spend it feeling hurt
Lets start to take the chance to make love work
Oh I do believe in miracles
But I know they dont come easy
So why dont we give destiny
A helping hand
For us to make love work
Weve got to try a little bit harder
And for love to work we gotta hold on
A human heart is just too precious
To spend it feeling hurt
Lets start to take the chance to make love work
Life is just too beautiful
To spend it feeling hurt
Lets start to take the chance to make love work

Farewell To You Angel
By the end of last year
I called you, through your ears
You received my call and we talk
My speeches make you bore
Throughly, I know you love me
I summoned your heart
You respond
You make my heart grow high like everest
You were to be my angel
Though, you make my sole to be filled with hell
Upon your name, I versify many poems
I never care about the rhymes
Silently, you know I love you
My heart has broken
Like an old shoe's sole
See, I wish you farewell
My heart has broken
I feel the pain
But after cloud there will be rain
I hate you forever
I will never love you again
I will never forgive you
Even Ares, can never
Rebuild my heart again
When in heaven
I will tell my maker
Your heart is a faker
I tried
But your heart desist
I told you never will I return
Meet them
Those that deceive you
Reality, my heart is gone
Farewell my angel.
Broken Heart Lollipop
Broken heart Lollipop
Got it at the candy shop
Broken heart Lollipop
How did we end up like this
Play that song that no one hears
Hoping that you will listen
Been away for all these years
You kept, me searching
Need a little bit more of your
Kandy kisses, so delicious
Need a little bit more
I need you right now!
Broken heart Lollipop
My broken heart Lollipop
You came into my world
You turned it right side up
Then you turned, you were gone
Leaving me this way
Broken heart Lollipop
My broken heart Lollipop
What went wrong?
I'm here staring at your picture
Thinking you'll come back to me
Looking for a solution
How can I make it real?

Fight For Ourselves
Everybody, weve got to fight for ourselves
Everybody, weve got to fight for ourselves
Everybody, weve got to fight for ourselves
Everybody, weve got to fight for ourselves
So many people, so many problems
There in the pretty city lights
Where weve thrown it all away
Well, if life is here before my eyes
Then I find it hard to see
How the methods that were told to use
Are gonna make us free
Until then I say
Everybody, weve got to fight for ourselves
Everybody, weve got to fight for ourselves
All through the mystery,
All through the heartache
Shes got the only single thing
That Ill never throw away
Oh, if lightning strikes for a second time
Will you come and pull me through?
Its a battle that we all must make,
So show me what to do
And you said
Everybody, weve got to fight for ourselves
Everybody, weve got to fight for ourselves
Well theres a feeling growing that is in this land,
Theres a soul thats burning and its your hand
Everybody, weve got to fight for ourselves
Oh so many people now, theres so many problems
There in the pretty city lights
Where weve thrown it all away
Well, if life is here before my eyes
Then I find it hard to see
How the methods that were told to use
Are gonna make us free
Everybody, weve got to fight for ourselves
Everybody, weve got to fight for ourselves
Well theres a feeling growing that is in this land,
Theres a soul thats burning and its your hand
Everybody, weve got to fight for ourselves

Stop
So you talked to my girl
When I don't want you to,
Want you to.
Just the thought of you holding her
When I don't want you to,
Want you to
Won't do.
No, no, no,
It won't do, no.
Stop! Stop!
You're trying to break it up between us.
Stop! Stop!
Don't want a broken heart between us.
Oh please, forget about it.
Make your mind up
What you're going to do about us.
So you talk better than me
And you know, you know it, know you know it
And if you want to get her from me
And you know you know it, know you know it,
Won't do, no,
I'm telling you it won't do, no.

Save The World
Weve got to save the world
Someone else may want to use it
So far weve seen
This planets rape, how weve abused it
Weve got to save the world
The russians have the biggest share
With their long fingers everywhere
And now theyve bombs in outer space
With laser beams and atomic waste
Rain forest chopped for paper towels
One acre gone in every hour*
Our birds and wildlife all destroyed
To keep some millionaires employed
Weve got to save the whale
Greenpeace theyve tried to diffuse it
But dog food salesmen
Persist on kindly to harpoon it
Weve got to save the world
The armament consortium
Theyre selling us plutonium
Now you can make your own h-bomb
Right in the kitchen with your mom
The nuclear power that costs you more
Than anything youve known before
The half-wits answer to a need
For cancer, death, destruction, greed
Weve got to save the world
Someones children they may need it
So far weve seen
The big business of extinction bleed it
Weve got to save the world
Were at the mercy of so few
With evil hearts determined to
Reduce this planet into hell
Then find a buyer and make quick sale
To end upon a happy note
Like trying to make concrete float
Is very simple knowing that
God in your heart lives
Weve got to save the world
Someone else may want to use it
Its time you knew
How close weve come
Were gonna lose it - we gotta save, we gotta save
We gotta save the world
