That's No Way To Break A Heart
Put Your Heart Into It
You don't need to talk French to make me giddy.
You don't need to fly me off to some foreign city.
You don't need pretty words just to turn my head.
And you don't need to be a Casanova in bed.
If you're gonna love me, why don't you just do it.
Come on baby, put your heart into it.
You don't need to pop out of a birthday cake.
You don't need to bring me roses on roller-skates,
Write my name in big letters across the sky.
No you don't need to run for president to catch my eye.
If you're gonna love me, why don't you just do it.
Come on baby, put your heart into it.
Well, you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make 'em drink.
Send a boy to college, but you can't make him think.
Well I've been feeling kind of lonely, like a ship out on the ocean.
I need to see a little old-fashioned emotion.
Well you got my attention, baby. What's on your mind.
You can leave all that fancy footwork behind.
Well I can see you're cute, and I know you're witty.
But let's get down to the real nitty gritty.
If you're gonna love me, why don't you just do it.
Come on baby, put your heart into it.
If you're gonna love me, why don't you just do it.
Come on baby, put your heart into it.
Tenderly
The air is cooling and
the sun's going down
The say's been grueling
in this dusty old town
My body's aching
for what you do to me
Tender tenderly
Tender tenderly
The words are easy
when the language is love
You know exactly what
I'm thinking of
My heart is hungry
for what you do to me
Tender tenderly
Tender tenderly
I've had lovers
go up in flames
Been with others
who've had no names
God I've waited patiently
For someone who
really touches me
I feel your fingers and
their touch is like fire
Sensations linger
then they turn to desire
My body's aching
for what you do to me
Tender tenderly
Tender tenderly
That's No Way To
Break A Heart
You waltz into the room
Just like you never left
And for a moment or two
I could almost forget
You take me in your arms
And I fall again
That's no way to break
a heart
You call my name
I drop my guard
Why can't you play
your chosen part
And stay away
so I can make another start
That's no way
to break a heart
Weren't you supposed
to need
Something I could not give
But now you're lying
so close to me
And you're taking
everything
I can't hold on forever
For nothing more then this
Chorus
No don't touch me,
don't you kiss me
Don't you realize
That's no way
to say goodbye
Words
Words,
they don't mean nothing
So tell me why
they hurt so much
I meant to tell you
something
It was on the tip
of my tongue
Words rush by so quickly
And its too late
to take them back
I tried to say I'm sorry
And that goodbye
was just an act
Chorus
But all my words
got in the way
And all the things
I meant to say
Were not the things
you heard
Oh, why'd you have to go
And take me
at my word
Words
come back to haunt you
Yeah, they just keep
hanging around
I still can hear the echo
I still can hear
their angry sound
Chorus
Words can say I love you
Oh, words can break a heart
I should have
stopped you leaving
And told the truth
right from the start.
