HEARTBREAK words and music by Shellen Lubin I thought I’d finally given up that dream I thought my heart was mended Then you walk in and freedom is a word That I just pretended Maybe the only way I know to live is heartbreak Maybe the only way I know to live is falling apart Maybe the only way I know to live is heartbreak ‘Cause it seems like I’ve always got a broken heart I know there’s some who’d love to treat me right Who’d give me what I needed When you won’t give me anything No matter how much I’ve pleaded Maybe the only way I know to live is heartbreak Maybe the only way I know to live is falling apart Maybe the only way I know to live is heartbreak ‘Cause it seems like I’ve always got a broken heart Don’t tell me you’re not good enough for me ‘Cause I will never hear you I’ve given over every other dream Just to be near you Don’t tell me that you’ll never change your ways I know it all too well I had my chance for heaven But I’ve chosen hell Maybe the only way I know to live is heartbreak Maybe the only way I know to live is falling apart Maybe the only way I know to live is heartbreak ‘Cause it seems like I’ve always got a broken heart Maybe the only way I know to live is heartbreak Maybe the only way I know to live is cut right in two Maybe the only way I know to live is heartbreak ‘Cause no matter what I do, I can’t get over, can’t get over Can’t get over you © 1989 Bondrov Music This song was not written about a person--not a romantic involvement, not a friend, not a family member . . . this song (yes, purposely deceptively) was written about being an artist in the world--about the music business, the theatre business, the arts in a world of capitalism and commercialism . . . Now you know. |
