lyrics

YOU CAN'T DIE FROM A BROKEN HEART

I'll watch you lie next to me in bed
I'll try to put these thoughts into your head

And me, I'm having that dream once again
The one in the big airplane
We wait for the engine to flame

You can't die from a broken heart
Just have to watch as the world falls apart
If you believe the truth will set you free
That's the difference between you and me

I think I'd travel through time if I could
I'd go back and turn all the bad into good

And you might even forgive me someday
But someday's too far away
To hold us together today

You can't die from a broken heart
Just have to watch as the world falls apart
If you can face not knowing what will be
That's the difference between you and me

And me, I'm no longer sleeping at all
I lie there and cannot recall
How we started building this wall

You can't die from a broken heart
Just have to watch as the world falls apart
If you can walk away and let it be
That's the difference between you and me

You can't die from a broken heart
Sometimes a heart that's stopped just won't restart
So now you think you know what to do
That's the difference between me and you
