Speak softly
Sometimes words can land so hard
Come near me
We don`t even have to talk
The practice of breaking hearts
Can become
Something all around
And then the look on your face
What you`re saying
Ain`t light to trace
You know it`s gonna hurt
Get in line with the broken hearted
Oh oh
Yet you know it`s going to hurt
That`s the way the whole thing started
Oh oh oh oh oh
You know it`s gonna hurt
And so we`ll see
It`s the pressures of our words
And we`ll long through
We`ll long through
All our
Faith and consolation
If added up the pleasures and pain
Can equal shares
Of things unsaid
Some things we`ll have to be right about
While we`re so cruel to ourselves
You know it`s gonna hurt
Get in a line with the broken hearted
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Yet you know it`s going to hurt
That`s the way the whole thing started
Oh oh oh oh oh
But tell this thing you lose
You love him baby
We just need a little time
Even if it takes forever
To mend this heart
Mend this heart of yours
And this heart of mine
Oh you know it`s gonna hurt
Get in a line with the broken hearted
Oh oh oh oh oh
You know it`s going to hurt
That`s the way the whole thing started
Oh oh oh oh oh
You know it`s gonna hurt
You know it`s gonna hurt
That`s the way the whole thing started
Oh oh oh oh oh
You know it`s gonna hurt
What becomes of the broken hearted
Oh oh oh oh oh
Yours and mine
You know it`s gonna hurt
Just need a little time
Oh oh oh oh oh
And the healing baby
You know it`s gonna hurt
You know it`s going to hurt
Oh oh oh oh oh
That`s the way the whole thing started
You know it`s gonna hurt
