My Brittle Heart

LETRA

My Brittle Heart

When I’m with you and with you, looking like you do
It snaps my brittle heart in two, to think I ever could lose you
And Honey, Honey
When you’re not here, I get this ringing in my ears
To think you’d ever disappear, well that just cripples me my dear
And Honey, Honey
 
Through darkest night until the dawn
You are the light to which I’m drawn
Don’t give me a break
I’ve had all the breaks a heart can bear
No, no, no, don’t set me free
Just don’t, just don’t
 
I need you more than a life raft needs the shore
The waves come lapping at my door; a sadness never felt before
And Honey, Honey
Your red night sky that says, “Tomorrow will be fine”
Well, I could never read the signs. I only read between the lines
Honey, Honey
 
A million stars that hang in space
They ain’t got nothing on your face
Don’t give me a break
I’ve had all the breaks a heart can bear
No, no, no, don’t set me free
Just don’t, just don’t
 
There’s no one I could love instead
You got me hanging by a thread
You’re all I adore
And Baby, anyone with half a brain could see
 
So, don’t set me free
Just don’t, just don’t
Go setting me free
Just don’t, just don’t
Don’t set me free
Baby, ‘cause liberty is wasted on me
 
So don’t, please
