Break My Heart

Allison Weiss


And another day goes by
where I'm stuck still wondering why
I'm in the passenger seat
of a car that's going nowhere.

I could sit here by your side,
or I could take a chance and try
my best
to find someone
who doesn't let me down.

And it's time
to hear the words that I've been saying.
Nevermind
my promises before.
We could try
to fix these ties before they're broken.

Say my name
and I am there,
but I still don't know what I'm here for.

And you know that being happy
doesn't have to be this hard.
Don't you see with every risk you take
you go and break my heart?

I can't stand here any longer
simply nodding soft and slow,
'cause I know
that doing nothing is worse than letting go.

And it's time
to hear the words that I've been saying.
Nevermind
my promises before.
We could try
to fix these ties before they're broken.

Say my name
and I am there,
but I still don't know what I'm here for.
