The Way We Make a Broken Heart

Just one more kiss, she'll have to miss this night with you

Now you're guilty of this secret love, as I am too

You'll get used to telling lies, feeling sorry when she cries

Now that the strings aren't attached, you'll catch on, we've done our part

Oh, and this is the way we make a broken heart

Lesson number one, we've just begun to hurt her so

And with lesson two she'll long for you when lights are low

And we get to lesson three when she gets down on her knees

And begs you to stop at the door just before she comes apart

Oh, this is the way we make a broken heart

Now we've made a trail of tears for her to follow

And we've thought of every line that she might swallow

And with lesson four, there'll be no more for her to bear

And on some dark night we'll dim the lights on this affair

Then she'll find somebody new and he'll likely hurt her too

'Cause there must be millions just like you and me, practiced in the art

Oh, and this is the way we make a broken heart

Oh, and this is the way we make a broken heart

Ay yi, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi

This is the way we make a broken heart

Ay yi, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi

This is the way, this is the way, this is the way, this is the way

Oh, this is the way we make a broken heart
