Broken Heart

I was only seventeen when my luck ran out

I didn't know where to turn I was so in doubt

I had to find someone to hold and I met my man

I loved him but I hated him too his habit's so out of hand

I said hey can't you see what you're doing to me

I gave you my heart but you can set me free

Because I'm not in the mood to be apologized to

There's more to this life than your d**gs and your booze

He said please don't cry

Wipe those tears from your eyes

I will survive

I will see you through

He promised me he'd change

And then one day a baby came

For the past nine months or so I ain't feeling so sweet

They told me I had to behave myself so I'd be healthy

I thought I did everything right now everything's gone wrong

Our baby's got a broken heart he ain't feeling so strong

My God what did I do to deserve this from you

I don't think I've ever been so confused

I still feel the pain even after the bruise

What should I do tell me what should I do

He said mama don't cry

Wipe those tears from your eyes

I will survive

I will see my life through

Please understand

It was not in your hands

You do the best that you can

And I know your love is true

I'm not surprised that I feel so old

Sometimes existence can be so cold

I'll find the strength just to carry on

Am I destined to pay for my every mistake

Will somebody tell me for how long

Please understand

It was not in your hands

You do the best that you can

And I know your love is true

Please don't cry

Wipe those tears from your eyes

I will survive

I will see you through
