Broken Heart Songtext
von Martika

I was only seventeen when my luck ran out
I didn′t know where to turn, I was so in doubt
I had to find someone to hold, then I met my man
I loved him but I hated him too, his habits so out of hand
I said, "Hey, can't you see what you′re doing to me?
I gave you my heart, but you can set me free
Because I'm not in the mood to be apologized to
There's more to this life than your drugs and your booze"

He said, "Please don′t cry
Wipe those tears from your eyes
I will survive, I will see you through"

He promised me he′d change
And then one day, a baby came
For the past nine months or so
I ain't feeling so sweet

They told me I had to behave myself so I′d be healthy
(Healthy)
I thought I did everything right
Now everything's gone wrong


Our baby′s got a broken heart
He ain't feeling so strong
My God, what did I do to deserve this from you?
I don′t think I've ever been so confused
I still feel the pain, even after the bruise
What should I do? Tell me, what should I do?

He said, "Mama, don't cry
Wipe those tears from your eyes
I will survive, I will see my life through
(Please understand) Please understand
It was not in your hands
You do the best that you can
And I know your love is true"

I′m not surprised that I feel so old
Sometimes existence can be so cold
I′ll find the strength just to carry on
Am I destined to pay for my every mistake?
Will somebody tell me for how long?

Please understand
It was not in your hands
You do the best that you can

And I know your love is true
Please don't cry
Wipe those tears from your eyes


I will survive, I will see you through
(Please understand) Please understand

It was not in your hands
You do the best that you can
And I know your love is true
Please don′t cry
Wipe those tears from your eyes

I will survive, I will see you through
(Please understand) Please understand
It was not in your hands
You do the best that you can
And I know your love is true
Please don't cry
Wipe those tears from your eyes

I will survive, I will see you through
(Please understand) Please understand
It was not in your hands
You do the best that you can
And I know your love is true
Please don′t cry
Wipe those tears from your eyes

I will survive, I will see you through
(Please understand) Please understand
It was not in your hands
You do the best that you can
And I know your love is true
