you shoot me down in flames
you put me down a lot
I'm giving you my heart
go on take it
please be carefull
not to break it
just remember it's the only one I've got
it's the only one i've got

(chorus)
don't break my heart (3x)

you make me laugh a lot
and by me silly things
I'd rather be with you
than anyone else
but if you make me mad
but if you make me mad
you wish that you had not
you wish that you had not

(chorus)
don't break my heart (3x)

where are the roses and whispered sighs
where are the compliments and dreaming eyes
it doesn't matter you see I know you love me
real basic love never dies

(chorus)
don't break my heart (3x)

where are the roses and whispered sighs
where are the compliments and dreaming eyes
it doesn't matter you see I know you love me
real basic love never dies

don't break my heart (7x)
