My Last Broken Heart (David Blackmore)

Can you read the writing on the wall?
Can you feel the pain you've given me?
Can you sympathize with my heart at all?
Look what you've done by setting yourself free.

They say without the pain there is no gain,
What did you gain by walking out on me?
It's hard to tell if we're playing the same game,
How could I let my heart fall so foolishly?

I should have known you'd take me for a ride,
Now I'm picking up the pieces in my mind;
You have shattered my pride
and torn everything apart,
Got me down to my last broken heart.

I've heard it said that time can heal your pain,
This time I feel it's not the same;
I fell so hard for you with both hands down,
This lonely cowboy's riding on hurtin ground.

I'm back in the saddle once again,
My old horse is now my best friend;
A campfire and a pot of coffee
and the stars at night,
If I can ride on through till morning I'll be alright.

I should have known you'd take me for a ride,
Now I'm picking up the pieces in my mind;
You have shattered my pride
and torn everything apart,
Got me down to my last broken heart.
Yes, you've got me down to my last broken heart.
