Lyrics
You picked me up, you shot me downYou’re stepping out all over townDrove me back to drinking in this barI found myself a brand new friendI’m headed down that road againI’m working on my next broken heart
Happy or sad, it’s hard to tellYou taught me how to hurt so wellBut when it comes to love, I know my partWell, I’ll play this game that I can’t winI’ll be somebody’s fool againWorking on my next broken heart
I thought all along you’d be the death of meBut I met one tonight who wants what’s left of meI’ve seen that look beforeShe’ll tear my world apartI’m working on my next broken heart
Yeah, I thought all along you’d be the death of meBut I met one tonight who wants what’s left of meI’ve seen that look beforeShe’ll tear my world apartI’m working on my next broken heart
I’m working on my next broken heartOh, I’m working on my next broken heart
