Break It to Me Gently

Break It To Me Gently - Mark Bautista

Did you think that your smile

Could hide what's on your mind

No matter how I tried

I just couldn't be so blind

We've been close but people grow

And they sometimes grow apart

There's just one thing I ask you

If you've had a change of heart

Break it to me gently

If you have to then tell me lies

Break it to me gently

At least leave me with my pride

Try to spare my feelings

If the feelings have to die

Break it to me gently

If you have to say goodbye

I'm not shamed to admit

I really hurt inside

After all these are my feelings

Why should I make them hide

But I won't hold you back

There'll be no pulling on your sleeve

Just let me down easy

And go softly when you leave

Break it to me gently

If you have to then tell me lies

Break it to me gently

At least leave me with my pride

Try to spare my feelings

If the feelings have to die

Break it to me gently

If you have to say goodbye

You always knew that you had my heart

It's still yours if you wanna take it

But when you go as I know you must

Be gentle with your breaking

Break it to me gently

At least leave me with my pride

Trust me and my feelings

If the feelings have to die

Break it to me gently

If you have to say goodbye

Break it to me gently

If you have to say goodbye
