Inside my loneliness and
sorting through the mess
I came across a bunch of snaps and letters,
I found an eight by ten, taken God knows when,
It took me back to when we found each other.
How did I let it start?
If I could only remember.
Oh, Oh, why did I break your heart?
The tender parts we played
I thought we had it made
The recipe for life, the perfect fusion,
But when the love turned sour
I found the happy hour
But drinking for the world is no solution.
How did I let it start?
If I could only remember.
Oh, Oh, why did I break your heart?
Can't we go back to the start?
I needed someone to tell me.
Why did I break your heart?
The cost of loving is a heavy burden
Somebody's gotta take the strain.
The things we said would make a cover story.
But who's gonna say?
Who should take all the blame?
We analysed ourselves
It didn't really help.
No one to referee, no rhyme no reason
I thought we had the best,
But when you flew the nest
My heart decided it was open season.
How did I let it start?
If I could only remember.
Oh, Oh, why did I break your heart?
Can't we go back to the start?
I needed someone to tell me.
Oh, Oh, why did I break your heart?
Why did I break your heart?
