Heartbreak Girl

Tom Cochrane


She says no one understands 
No one sees that point of view 
Less you force them to 
Less you coerce them to 
Less you break their arm then it's not real 
It's so hard to communicate 
So hard to relate 
Unless you're someone else 
Unless you've not come to 
Dictate... to dictate to 
To tell 'em what to do 
I got my own mind 
I want to have some fun 
I want to be in the sun 
I want to be somewhere, where I can be 
Who I've got to be 
Got to see, got to be real 
Where I'm calling from 
They can't desert you 
Where you're calling from 
They like to eat you but they can't hurt you 
Don't you know you're just like me when you hurt 
Heartbreak girl it's your choice 
Break outside, raise your voice 
Like the book of esther where she shows her colours 
And lets down her hair 
Heartbreak girl if you knew and if you dare 
Don't you know you're just like me when you hurt 
Do the things you've got to do 
All those things that come to you 
When you hold your head all up and and above 
And the haze falls away like defenses fall 
Write a letter to yourself and 
Do the things you've got to do 
To no one else 
Turn me upside down, you turn me upside down 
You're boundless 
Where I'm calling from I wont desert you 
Where you're calling from they'd like to eat you 
But they can't hurt you 
Don't you know you're just like me when you hurt 
CHORUS 
Betty Page on a bad day 
Deitrich's silent rage that prays 
Don Juan's reckless daughter turns the page 
To a celestine dumb struck other stage 
It's your world all the time is on your side
