Bogguss Suzy - I Wish Hearts Would Break lyrics

He was a giant

Swung a heavy hammer in the bottom of a mine

But he always came up smiling, a light within his eyes

Now there is a skeleton that I don't recognize

But it is not the coal that has him fading fast

It's a love gone forever that he thought would last

That he can't get past

I wish hearts would break

It wouldn't be quite such a beating to take

Why don't they give in

Instead of coming back over and over again

Oh I wish hearts would break

She was an angel

Arms open wide, never met a stranger

Now she withdraws at the slightest touch

Like an animal that's beaten one time too much

But it was not an angry hand that hurt her so

It was a gentle one that she used to hold

That let her go

I wish hearts would break

It wouldn't be quite such a beating to take

Why don't they give in

Instead of coming back over and over again

Oh I wish hearts would break

I wish hearts would break

It wouldn't be quite such a beating to take

Why don't they give in

Instead of coming back over and over again

Oh I wish hearts would break
