Lyrics

I Can Break My Own Heart
writers: Marc Kuchner and Stacey Magers

Well, it's been a long year since you disappeared
And I've been keeping occupied
I was bumming around back in my hometown
When guess who appeared by my side?
You said: hey sugar pie, can I give you a ride?
Ain't I seen you down this road before?
Well honey, it's true that I've been there with you
But I don't need your kind of help anymore

I can break my own heart
I can get my own blues
I can kill my own time
Turn on my own attitude
Yeah, I can tell my own lies
I don't need your alibis
I can break my own heart, baby
Now I don't need you

Well, when you left I was a worse than a wreck
Cause I thought you were the best I could find
But the more I would cruise on the sea of my blues
The less I had you on my mind
The next boy I met was as sweet as they get
But I didn't even give him a chance
I shivered and sighed and started to cry
Before he even asked me to dance

Yeah, I can break my own heart
I can get my own blues
I can kill my own time
Turn on my own attitude
Yeah, I can tell my own lies
I don't need your alibis
I can break my own heart, baby
Now I don't need you

Well, honey, you taught me some lessons
Things I should have known before
But I picked up my best bad habits
After you walked out my door

Now I can break my own heart
I can sing my own blues
I can kill my own time
Turn on my own attitude
I can tell my own lies
I don't need your alibis
I can break my own heart, baby
Now I don't need you
Yeah, I can break my own heart, baby
Now I don't need you
