Broken Hearted

Broken Hearted - Hank Snow

You ask me why I'm broken hearted

Why I've she'd a million tears sweetheart for you

It's not easy when the love you've cherished

Proves falsehearted careless and untrue

You built a chain around my heart dear

But each link was only sorrow and regret

For you taught my aching heart to love you

But you never taught it to forget

I've tried in vain to find a new love

That would take your place and teach me to forget

But I find you'll always have my heart dear

I must live in memories of regret

Tho' darling there's one consolation

In my dreams I know I'll find you waiting there

But I'll wake to find each new tomorrow

Saddened by a broken love affair
