(Guy Clark)
Well, who wouldn't notice the fire in your eyes
Or the bitter direction of impending goodbyes?
I'm fallin', I'm folded, I'm wilted in place
At the sight of you standin' with streaks down your face.
Chorus:
You got your heartbroke, go runnin' from the reason
Got your heartbroke, don't give up on believin' in me
Heartbroke, who kept me from leavin' with my heartbroke.
Well, pride when you're rich is a bore if you're lonely
Sheer madness prevails upon reason to yield
But all is not lost it's only mistaken
That's small consolation but I know just how you feel.
Chorus:
You got your heartbroke, go runnin' from the reason
Got your heartbroke, don't give up on believin' in me
Heartbroke, who kept me from leavin' with my heartbroke.
--- Instrumental ---
Well, nobody said it was goin' to be easy
We all have our weak sides that need a soft good touch.
But nobody said that it would not be worth it
The human condition continues as such.
Chorus:
You got your heartbroke, go runnin' from the reason
Got your heartbroke, don't give up on believin' in me
Heartbroke, who kept me from leavin' with my heartbroke.
With my heartbroke, with my heartbroke
You got your heartbroke...
Well, who wouldn't notice the fire in your eyes
Or the bitter direction of impending goodbyes?
I'm fallin', I'm folded, I'm wilted in place
At the sight of you standin' with streaks down your face.
Chorus:
You got your heartbroke, go runnin' from the reason
Got your heartbroke, don't give up on believin' in me
Heartbroke, who kept me from leavin' with my heartbroke.
Well, pride when you're rich is a bore if you're lonely
Sheer madness prevails upon reason to yield
But all is not lost it's only mistaken
That's small consolation but I know just how you feel.
Chorus:
You got your heartbroke, go runnin' from the reason
Got your heartbroke, don't give up on believin' in me
Heartbroke, who kept me from leavin' with my heartbroke.

Well, nobody said it was goin' to be easy
We all have our weak sides that need a soft good touch.
But nobody said that it would not be worth it
The human condition continues as such.
Chorus:
You got your heartbroke, go runnin' from the reason
Got your heartbroke, don't give up on believin' in me
Heartbroke, who kept me from leavin' with my heartbroke.
With my heartbroke, with my heartbroke
You got your heartbroke...
