Un-Break My Heart

Toni Braxton

Don't leave me in all this pain
Don't leave me out in the rain
Come back and bring back my smile
Come and take these tears away
I need your arms to hold me now
The nights are so unkind
Bring back those nights when I held you beside me

Un-break my heart
Say you'll love me again
Undo this hurt you caused
When you walked out the door
And walked out of my life
Un-cry these tears
I cried so many nights
Un-break my heart
My heart

Take back that sad word goodbye
Bring back the joy to my life
Don't leave me here with these tears
Come and kiss this pain away
I can't forget the day you left
Time is so unkind
And life is so cruel without you here beside me

Un-break my heart
Say you'll love me again
Undo this hurt you caused
When you walked out the door
And walked out of my life
Un-cry these tears
I cried so many nights
Un-break my heart, oh, ooh
Ooh

Don't leave me in all this pain
Don't leave me out in the rain
Bring back the nights when I held you beside me

Un-break my heart
Say you'll love me again
Undo this hurt you caused
When you walked out the door
And walked out of my life
Un-cry these tears
I cried so many, many nights
Oh, un-break my

Un-break my heart, oh baby
Come back and say you love me
Un-break my heart, sweet darlin'
Without you I just can't go on

(Say that you love me, say that you love me)
(Tell me you love me, un-break my)
Can't go on
(Say that you love me, say that you love me)
(Tell me you love me, un-break my)
(Say that you love me, say that you love me)
(Tell me you love me, un-break my)

    A whiny, need-you-back heartbreak song - we've all had these moments. Toni sings it exceptionally well.

    Song Meaning
    A very beautiful, very painful song that totally connects me to the pain I caused a girl I worked with whom I shared great heart felt emotions. From the very second we met, 21 years ago, I have loved her more than words can ever say. She was in an unhappy committed marriage and I was single. Verbally, I could never share my tremendous feelings for her. I let actions speak louder. Her powerful feelings for me were sent to my heart by hugs and glances. In a sweet moment in 2009 we shared a hug and I told her I may be leaning for a new job. She was supportive. 2 days later I was gone. Could not call her at work or disrupt her home life with a call.. A friend I worked with called me 3 months later telling me how distraught she is Her Birthday is in 2 days. I cry every day

    I don't find it depressing. I think it's a great song, and her voice is just... AMAZING. No other word for it. This song also lets her sing highs and deep lows, so it shows off her voice perfectly. The meaning is obvious. xD

Alma Matters
Morrissey
The man has pseudo-friends who constantly criticize his actions. They moralize him, "teach" him and advise him to make a significant change in his life, because the way he is and what he does is not what they say it should be. They may find his life lame or immoral. They hold themselves up as role models. The man replies that he will make his own choices and decisions and he does not agree to unconditionally make himself under the influence of questionable quality advice. He justifies this by saying that there is always someone for whom he will be important, no matter what he does and no matter what he is. Although it is not said directly, I read it as meaning that he will always be important to himself in every way and he will always have his own support. "Everyone is different and maybe that's a good thing, but you exceeded that mark 1000 times" - I remember very well how sad the words I once heard (from my peers and it was in negative context) at school made me feel.
