1
They used to say that boys are tough as nails
2
In every way he keeps his heart as guarded as a jail
3
Now things have changed, I feel so old
4
Like any girl could drag my heart across the coals
5
I was always there in the thick of things
6
I always had the heart of every woman on a string
7
The danger zone shone from my eyes
8
It seemed like every inch I gained became a mile
9
It's not the night reaching in and touching me
10
It's just that breaking hearts ain't what it used to be
11
It seems that time has killed that cruel streak in me
12
And breaking hearts ain't what it used to be
13
It's not the light shining in and catching me
14
It's just that breaking hearts ain't what it used to be
15
But time has come and cast a spell on me
16
And breaking hearts ain't what it used to be
17
And now I know what lonely means
18
I used to give so little and gain everything
19
The darkest part of every day
20
Is the shadow of another girl as she turns and walks away
21
Can't say I blame them all for being hurt
22
After all, I treated each and every one like dirt
23
Who wants a heart that's never home?
24
I face the facts and lock myself into a life alone
