I watched the shadows grow long
and slowly disappear
like watching ice melting into the sun
it's just gone, gone, gone
I've seen the broken down sidewalks
after a hard spring rain
I've seen the steam rising up to the sun
only to fall back down again
He's got a broken heart
The tears fell like rain
I told myself I'd never feel this pain again
cryin' from a broken heart
Don't turn your back on me baby
don't you run, run, run away
don't dig your heels down into my heart
and then stomp, stomp, stomp
I know the story's been told
the boy who cried from a broken heart
yeah he cried for what could've been
then he drove down to the shore
He's got a broken heart
The tears fell like rain
I told myself I'd never feel this pain again
cryin' from a broken heart
Broken heart
I saw her across the room
floatin' like an angel in the night
cryin' from a broken heart
This is the big water now
the dark pool that portends
It's as deep as a mountain is tall
and the sadness never ends
A star's a lonely feeling
that burned out long ago
She thought she saw the sun in his smile
but it was gone, gone gone
He's got a broken heart
The tears fell like rain
I told myself I'd never feel this pain again
cryin' from a broken heart
Broken heart
I saw her across the room
floatin' like an angel in the night
cryin' from a broken heart
cryin' from a broken heart
cryin' from a broken heart
