Roger Whittaker - Before She Breaks My Heart lyrics

I've lived over half my life And she's only just nineteen Will she wake up one day and find That she's really changed her mind And she's not in love with me Does she love the man I am Is it her Father that she sees She has time to be unsure For her there's time to find a cure But not for me So, before she breaks my heart I must say "go" Before she breaks my heart I must say "no" She can't stay (She can't stay) I must make her go away However hard she cries If I have to tell her lies Before she breaks my heart As I stand alone, I vow That today will be the day That I'll find the strength somehow To end it here and now To tell her she can't stay Then she'll walk into the room And her arms will open wide It's not a little girl I see But a woman, warm and free Who wants me by her side But before she breaks my heart I must say "go" Before she breaks my heart I must say "no" She can't stay (She can't stay) I must make her go away However hard she cries If I have to tell her lies Before she breaks my heart Before she breaks my heart
