"A Little Hard Hearted" lyrics

"A Little Hard Hearted"

We were playing house
Just playing make believe
That you and I in love
Is all we really need
How could I have known
That every feeling swallowed inside
Would just keep glowing
Never knowing that it would someday blow in
Then it was over just like it started
A little more lonely
And a little hard-hearted
The looking glass shattered
Everyone departed
A little more lonely
And a little hard-hearted
Ooh

Broken dreams and shattered glass
Late night screams and busted handles
We tried to hide the past
Settled for the lies
And the dirty scandals
How could I have known
The promises would fade now
Turned to stone and fall away
Just fall away

Then it was over
Just like it started
A little more lonely
And a little hard-hearted
Yeah

The looking glass shattered
Everyone departed
A little more lonely
And a little hard-hearted

Ooh
I don't want to be hard-hearted
No
I don't want to be hard-hearted

And it was over
Just like it started
A little more lonely
And a little hard-hearted
The looking glass shattered
Everyone departed
A little more lonely
A little hard-hearted
