LYRICS

You broke your own heart
When you tried to break mine
And now you say you're sorry
There's trouble on your mind
It's too late for pity
The table's turned this time
You broke your own heart
When you tried to break mine

I begged you to be true
Dear, time after time
The way you tried to treat me
Darling, was a crime
But now I've found a new love
One that's true and kind
You broke your own heart
When you tried to break mine

Now that you're alone
And your broken heart does pine
Think of the one that loved you
That you left behind
And darling, when you're cryin'
And from tears your eyes are blind
You broke your own heart
When you tried to break mine
