lyrics

Just a Little Heartbreak

My old friend, forgive me if I cross the line
If it’s not for me to say
But I fear we might be running out of time
And I’d rather risk you hating me if it might keep you safe

I know you don’t want me to know
But I’m begging you to finally let go

It’s just a little heartbreak
Nothing you can’t handle
So hold your head up and walk out that door

It’ll be lonesome
But you can manage
Your heart needs so much more
I know it’s love but this ain’t what love is for

You say you can’t just turn your back upon a vow
You remember how it used to be
But can’t you see that was then but it ain’t now
And the past you share don’t mean that you can’t leave

I know you’re scared to go
But you don’t have to do it all alone

It’s just a little heartbreak
Nothing we can’t handle
So hold your head up and walk out that door

It’ll be lonesome
But you can manage
Your heart needs so much more
I know it’s love but this ain’t what love is for
