"Heartbreak" lyrics

"Heartbreak"

Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
I wasn't born the day we met
You think you know someone
But a lifetime of yesterdays
Cannot be forgotten, oh no
Oh no
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
I wasn't born without a past
I didn't fall like a star
From a moonlit night
To happen
Upon a loveless hour
Oh no

How many times can a heart stand to break?
I don't know, I don't know, oh oh
How many times must I take
More than I can take?

Twenty millions ways I've learnt to cry
Everyone I love just says goodbye
Don't know why I even try
When I get heartbreak again

Everyone has a story
Only fairytales survive judge and jury
Flesh and bone bleed red
And every lie makes a cold, cold bed
Oh oh oh
How many times can a heart stand to break?
I don't know, I don't know, oh oh
How many times must I take
More than I can take?

Twenty millions ways I've learnt to cry
Everyone I love just says goodbye
Don't know why I even try
When I get heartbreak again

Twenty million times I've had to die
Will I ever know a reason why
Why is it that every single time
I get heartbreak again

What you see isn't what you get
Oh no
Tears fall out of the blue like rain
And every cloud, a silver lining

Twenty millions ways I've learnt to cry
Everyone I love just says goodbye
Don't know why I even try
When I get heartbreak again

It doesn't sweeten the medicine
Of this feelin I'm confession
I give as good as I am gettin
I just thought I would mention
I wasn't born the day we met

Don't know why I even try
When I get heartbreak again
