When you call she doesn't answer When you write she doesn't answer You go out you see him with her She told you she was sick at home The ring you gave her, Thrown away with all the letters And when you see him with her, He doesn't even care at all And she follows him around like you follow her around And he doesn't even care and you figure it out The only way you're gonna keep somebody around Well I'm about to let you know There's something I don't wanna understand The only way a woman's gonna want a man The only way you'll ever keep her in your hands Is breaking apart her heart Don't tell her she's the reason that you live Don't give her everything that you've got to give If you wanna keep the girl for as long as you live Just Break it Apart her Heart Can't you see the way she's crying Well that's what keeps her trying She knew that she could have you And he don't give her what she wants There's truth about this You say you wanna be noticed Well if you wanna be noticed You gotta learn to break some hearts Don't try to understand There's something I don't wanna understand The only way a woman's gonna want a man The only way you'll ever keep her in your hands Is breaking apart her heart Don't tell her she's the reason that you live Don't give her everything that you've got to give If you wanna keep the girl for as long as you live Just Break it Apart her Heart Can you see What you've done What I've become What I've become Can't you see?
