Lyrics
When a Heart Breaks Slowly
When a heart breaks slowly
You can feel all the pieces falling apart
And you think if only
You could do it again, you'd go back to the
start
But then you know
People don't really change at all
Because it shows
I never changed so how could you
If time could erase, the scars on my heart (head voice
Would life be the same, would we be where we are
There was love, there were dreams, we had hope, it was you and me
When a heart breaks slowly, you just fade away
I was trapped in a cage I
Tried fiercely not to fight
And my scrapbook is just pieces of you
I know it only shows the light
But sometimes good
Comes from the heartache, and the pain
And you can choose
The sorrow you keep, the lessons you take
If time could erase, the scars on my heart
Would life be the same, would we be where we are
There was love, there were dreams, we had hope, it was you and me
When a heart breaks slowly you just fade
you just fade
fade away
