"How To Break A Heart" lyrics

"How To Break A Heart"
(feat. Lori McKenna & Hillary Lindsey)

Ask it out, pick it up
Drive it around in your pickup truck
Take it dancing, buy it a drink
Say it's the prettiest one you ever seen
Bring it on home, kiss it in the porch light
And tell it it's okay to fall
Hang the moon in the midnight
But in the morning you don't call
You're the lover and the leaver right there in the dark
Yeah, that's how to break a heart

Call your mama, you found the one
Say you're in it for the real long run
Put a diamond on her hand
Then you call up your best man
Go out drinking, Friday night
See another one catches your eye
You one-lining and two-timing
Boy, you know how to lie
You're the lover and the leaver, you're the master of the art
Yeah, that's how to break a heart

It ain't that easy to put back together
Once it breaks, what's done is did
Yeah, well, you might wanna remember
What goes around, comes back again
Karma's a bitch, knows who you are
And she knows how to break a heart
And she's gone, ain't waiting on you

A couple months down the road
Rumor says that's all she wrote
She'll dress it up in something black
And make you want what you used to have
You go out drinking, Friday night
She's got her arms round someone new
It's obvious from where you're sitting
Her better off looks worse on you
And now she level up, yeah she gone and raised the bar
So tell me, how's it feel to get a taste of what you are?
She knows how to break a heart
Yeah, that's how to break a heart
