Hearts Breaking Even Lyrics
It's a cold, cold, cold, cold, cold night tonight
I can't get you off my mind - God knows I've tried
Did I throw away the best part of my life, when I cut you off
I cut myself with the same damn knife
Hide my tears in the pouring rain, had my share of hurt and pain
Don't say my name, run away, cause it's all in vain
My hearts breaking even, now there's no use we even try
Hey I cried, Yeah I lied, Hell I almost died
Both got our reasons, let's just fold the cards and say good-bye
It's all right, just two hearts breaking even tonight
It's been a long, long, long, long, long time
Since I've had your love here in my hands
We didn't understand it, we couldn't understand it
But, nothing's fair in love and hate
You lay it all down and walk away, before it's too late
Danced all night as the music played
The sheets got tangled in the mess we made
There in the stains, we remain
No one left to blame
My hearts breaking even, now there's no use we even try
Hey I cried, Yeah I lied, Hell I almost died
Both got our reasons, let's just fold the cards and say good-bye
It's all right, just two hearts breaking even tonight
Go on, get on with your life, yeah and I'll get on with mine
Broken hearts can't call the cops, yeah it's the perfect crime
Twisting and turning the night keeps me yearning
I'm burning alive
I'm paying the price again
But I'll see the light again
My hearts breaking even, now there's no use we even try
Hey I cried, Yeah I lied, Hell I almost died
Both got our reasons, let's just fold the cards and say good-bye
It's all right, just two hearts breaking even tonight
I can't get you off my mind - God knows I've tried
Did I throw away the best part of my life, when I cut you off
I cut myself with the same damn knife
Hide my tears in the pouring rain, had my share of hurt and pain
Don't say my name, run away, cause it's all in vain
Hey I cried, Yeah I lied, Hell I almost died
Both got our reasons, let's just fold the cards and say good-bye
It's all right, just two hearts breaking even tonight
Since I've had your love here in my hands
We didn't understand it, we couldn't understand it
But, nothing's fair in love and hate
You lay it all down and walk away, before it's too late
Danced all night as the music played
The sheets got tangled in the mess we made
There in the stains, we remain
No one left to blame
Hey I cried, Yeah I lied, Hell I almost died
Both got our reasons, let's just fold the cards and say good-bye
It's all right, just two hearts breaking even tonight
Broken hearts can't call the cops, yeah it's the perfect crime
Twisting and turning the night keeps me yearning
I'm burning alive
I'm paying the price again
But I'll see the light again
Hey I cried, Yeah I lied, Hell I almost died
Both got our reasons, let's just fold the cards and say good-bye
It's all right, just two hearts breaking even tonight

This song is a great song because of the message behind it. They aren't good together, except in the physical part of the relationship, which is suggested by 'Sheets got tangled in the mess we made....'. I love this song cause Jon's voice is really great for it, and the lyrical content is once again superb. Great job guys.
The songs got a great feel. layed back and breezy. I love the These Days album theres so much variety
I love this song so much. I think the meanings pretty obvious. Just about to people breaking up. x
this song means so much its really good i think its about a couple breaking up and its really hard to let someone that means alot to you go.. i love the songs from the these days album they are so good.... bon jovi 4 ever..
You guys are gay. Oh, and I mean these fangirls. You guys suck.
