"Broke My Heart" lyrics

"Broke My Heart"

Roscommon CBS 1981
A dreary afternoon
We travelled down from Tuam
I saw that open goal
I can see it still
Fifty-fifty ball
You nearly got me killed

You broke my heart
Tore it apart
We lost that spark
When you broke my heart

We might have won the game
But I just didn't care
You went and let it go
Just like I wasn't there
I saw you comin' in
I wasn't marked at all
I had it in the net
If you had passed the ball

You broke my heart
Tore it apart
We lost that spark
When you broke my heart

I was standing on the edge
Of the parallelogram
Roarin' me head off
Pass it in sham
Play it in low
Don't hesitate or stall
Will you open your eyes
For Christ' sake
Pass me the ball

You broke my heart
Tore it apart
We lost that spark
When you broke my heart

Their full-back was big
But I was small and fast
I had him left for dead
If I had got that pass
A girl can foul you up
Tear your life apart
There's more than just one way
To break a young mans heart
And you broke mine
