You shoot me down in flames
you put me down a lot

I'm giving you my heart
go on
take it
Please be careful not to break it
just remember:
It's the only one I've got
it's the only one I've got
Don't break my heart - don't break my heart -
don't break my heart

You make me laugh a lot and buy me silly things
And I'd rather be with you than anyone else
But if you make me mad
but if you make me mad

You'll wish that you had not
you'll wish that you had not
Don't break my heart - don't break my heart -
don't break my heart

Where are the roses and whispered sighs?
Where are the compliments and dreaming eyes?
It doesn't matter you see
I know you love me;
Real basic love never dies
Don't break my heart - don't break my heart -
don't break my heart

Where are the roses and whispered sighs?
Don't break my heart - don't break my heart -
don't break my heart
