Tearin' Up My Heart Lyrics

Chorus:
It's tearin' up my heart when I'm with you
But when we are apart I feel it too
And no matter what I do I feel the pain
With or without you
Baby I don't understand
Just why we can't be lovers
Things are gettin' out of hand
Tryin' too much but baby we can't win
Let it go
If you want me girl let me know
I am down on my knees
I can't take it anymore
Chorus
Baby don't misunderstand
What I'm tryin' to tell ya
In the corner of my mind
Baby it feels like we're running out of time
Let it go
If you want me girl let me know
I am down on my knees
I can't take it anymore
Chorus
Tearin' up my heart and soul
We're apart I feel it too
and no matter what I do I feel the pain
with or without you
Tearin' up my heart and soul
We're apart I feel it too
and no matter what I do I feel the pain
with or with out you
It's tearin up my heart when I'm with you
(Tearin' up my heart and soul)
But when we are apart I feel it too
(We're apart I feel it too)
And no matter what I do I feel the pain
With or without you
And no matter what I do I feel the pain
With or without you

God Must Have Spent A Little More Time On You

Chorus: 
It's tearin' up my heart when I'm with you 
But when we are apart I feel it too 
And no matter what I do I feel the pain 
With or without you 
Baby I don't understand 
Just why we can't be lovers 
Things are gettin' out of hand 
Tryin' too much but baby we can't win 
Let it go 
If you want me girl let me know 
I am down on my knees 
I can't take it anymore 
Chorus 
Baby don't misunderstand 
What I'm tryin' to tell ya 
In the corner of my mind 
Baby it feels like we're running out of time 
Let it go 
If you want me girl let me know 
I am down on my knees 
I can't take it anymore 
Chorus 
Tearin' up my heart and soul 
We're apart I feel it too 
and no matter what I do I feel the pain 
with or without you 
Tearin' up my heart and soul 
We're apart I feel it too 
and no matter what I do I feel the pain 
with or with out you 
It's tearin up my heart when I'm with you 
(Tearin' up my heart and soul) 
But when we are apart I feel it too 
(We're apart I feel it too) 
And no matter what I do I feel the pain 
With or without you 
And no matter what I do I feel the pain 
With or without you

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

LOVE the melody...and to me, this song means that even though you love someone, whether you're with them or far away, you feel pain - whether it be a pain for more love or a pain to return to it - the decision is completely yours. Great song.
