Only Love Can Break a Heart - Gene Pitney

You're walking like an angel in heaven In the night I see an angel in you In my lonely dreams I count to seven And I call you baby, know that it is true When you're young and in love It's too hot to stop Young and in love You never give up Only love can break my heart It's tearing me apart Now I never feel brand new Only love can break my heart Playing it's so hard Nobody love's me like you do Only love can break my heart It's time to make a start Babe, I love you without end Only love can break my heart You'll make it if you start Babe, take me as your friend Your feelings are tossing and turning You have to love to pay the right price Your lonely heart keeps on burning But an angel will hear many lies When you're young and in love It's too hot to stop Young and in love You can never give up

I have a friend I've never seen He hides his head inside a dream Yes, only love can break your heart Yes, only love can break your heart Yes, only love can break your heart Yes, only love can break your heart

Have you ever picked guitar on your front porch In the morning as the sun was risin'? Or followed your dog down to the river And ran into an ole' baptizin'? Do you think to pull off on the side of the road When that big black hearse is passing? Have you ever helped someone in need Without them even asking? We do that in the country, Let me tell you 'bout country. Country can be in the middle of a city Country can be on a farm, Country ain't even a place on map, It's a place in your heart. Have you ever hitched a ride to Music City Just to see an Opry show? Would you drive across the country To listen to some country? Country can be in the middle of a city Country can be on a farm, Country ain't even a place on the map, It's a place in your heart. Have you ever been there at the courthouse square For the parade on the 'Fourth of July'? With a tear on your face and a lump in your throat As you watch ole' glory go by, Or sat thru a service where they played tabs For a soldier who never came home? Or looked in the sad brown eyes of his momma As she touched his name on that stone? He fought for his country And died for his country I love my country. Let me tell you 'bout. country.
