How Could You Break My Heart
Written By Cindy Jackson
Verse 1
How could you
Break my heart
Into a trillion pieces
After all the love
I gave you
So unselfishly
Would have hurt less
Falling down the stairs
Breaking all my bones
Then it did for me
To walk out and leave
It was the last thing
That I wanted to do
But still I was left with no choice
Either stay with you hurting
Or find a way to heal myself
Chorus
Now I’m just left here
Wondering
How could you break my heart
The Best Love
Just put it in the dirt
Like it had no value to you
But I have news for you
When you did that
It grew roots
Came up through the soil
Like a beautiful flower
Watch me bloom
But still I’m left wondering
How could you
How could you
Ever break my heart
Verse 2
I still do cry
If you’re wondering
Still die inside
Just a little bit
All the memories we made
Just left them in the past
But it doesn’t make it easier
Knowing the love we shared
You took for granted
Like it was all for nothing
Time we can’t get back
Just wasted
You didn’t have
Not a speck of empathy
The way you tore my heart
Straight out my chest
Chorus
Now I’m just left here
Wondering
How could you break my heart
The Best Love
Just put it in the dirt
Like it had no value to you
But I have news for you
When you did that
It grew roots
Came up through the soil
Like a beautiful flower
Watch me bloom
But still I’m left wondering
How could you
How could you
Ever break my heart
