She wakes up
She’s leaving
She gets out
so assured that she can find
The life that she believes in
She’s glad now
It’s over
She never
should have gotten so involved
At least that’s what she told him
And it ain’t a front page story
Won’t even make the papers
Somebody breaks a heart in two
And it happens much too often
Won’t ever make the headlines
Somebody’s broken heart ain’t new
Except when
It happens
to you
He wonders what happened
He thinks of all the things he might have done
Why shouldn’t she believe him?
He wakes up without her
And never really knows just what went wrong
But it’s all wrong
without her
And it ain’t a front page story
Won’t even make the papers
Somebody breaks a heart in two
And it happens much too often
Won’t ever make the headlines
Another broken heart ain’t new
Except when
It happens
to you
And it ain’t a front page story
Won’t even make the papers
Somebody breaks a heart in two
And it happens much too often
Won’t ever make the headlines
Another broken heart ain’t new
Except when
It happens
to you
