I watched the shadows grow long and slowly disappear like watching ice melting into the sun it's just gone, gone, gone I've seen the broken down sidewalks after a hard spring rain I've seen the steam rising up to the sun only to fall back down again He's got a broken heart The tears fell like rain I told myself I'd never feel this pain again cryin' from a broken heart Don't turn your back on me baby don't you run, run, run away don't dig your heels down into my heart and then stomp, stomp, stomp I know the story's been told the boy who cried from a broken heart yeah he cried for what could've been then he drove down to the shore He's got a broken heart The tears fell like rain I told myself I'd never feel this pain again cryin' from a broken heart Broken heart I saw her across the room floatin' like an angel in the night cryin' from a broken heart This is the big water now the dark pool that portends It's as deep as a mountain is tall and the sadness never ends A star's a lonely feeling that burned out long ago She thought she saw the sun in his smile but it was gone, gone gone He's got a broken heart The tears fell like rain I told myself I'd never feel this pain again cryin' from a broken heart Broken heart I saw her across the room floatin' like an angel in the night cryin' from a broken heart cryin' from a broken heart cryin' from a broken heart
