Don't Let It Break Your Heart Lyrics
If I lost the map
If I lost it all
I fell into the trap
Then she calls...
When you're tired of racing and you
Find you left the start
Come on baby
Don't let it break your heart
Those heavenly regrets
Still I'll recall
Trying to catch a cannonball
And it's so burning tired
Oh through my veins it's flowing
From the shipwreck I heard the call
When she sang...
When you're tired of aiming your arrows
Still you never hit the mark
Even if your aims are shadows
Still we're never gonna part
Come on baby
Don't let it break your heart
If I lost it all
I fell into the trap
Then she calls...
Find you left the start
Don't let it break your heart
Still I'll recall
Trying to catch a cannonball
And it's so burning tired
From the shipwreck I heard the call
When she sang...
Still you never hit the mark
Even if your aims are shadows
Still we're never gonna part
Don't let it break your heart

'When you're tired of waiting, you just find you never had to stop''
Should be:
'When you're tired of racing, and you find you never left the start'
And 'even if your aims are shadows'
Should be:
'Even in your rains and shadows, still we're never going to part'
Hope this helps:-)
No matter how much it hurts, you MUST go on. Don't let it break your heart...
Even if there is nowhere to go on to? :)

About two people who left a relationship trying to comfort each other. One left the other to pursue revolution. The male I think. Anyway, they're trying to keep each other from suffering after the breakup. I think they stay apart though, no more relationship for them.
It's about the strength that one person can give to someone. In the song, "her", can be a friend, a mother, a girlfriend or even a wife. She can give us strength with her words and "even in your rains and shadows, still we're never gonna part" means that she will always be there for us.
First of all, these are the correct lyrics for the first verse and chorus. The rest of it has some mistakes too, but not as pressing. I edited it, but we'll see if it goes through.
"If I lost the map If I lost it all I fell into the trap Then she calls
When you're tired of racing and you Find you never left the start Come on baby, don't let it break your heart"
And second, I love this song. It always cheers me up. And I found out today that not only does it cheer me up, but it actually builds my compassion for others, even my enemies. No matter how bad they've treated me, I can listen to this song and by the end of it I am praying for them and smiling. So many of their songs are healing and powerful, and obviously this one's no exception. :)
"still on we crawl, trying to catch a cannonball"
"ohhhh, through my veins its flowing, from my shipwreck I heard a call"
i believe this is what its saying, to help fill in those question marks :)
"I fell into the trap, Then she goes"
should be:
"Or fell into the trap Then she'd call"
also, the second verse should be:
"Though heavily we bled Still on we crawl Try to catch a cannonball And a slowly burning tide Through my veins is flowing From my shipwreck I heard her call"
I think it helps to understand the song this way, although I'm not sure I can fully understand it yet! Such a heartfelt song :)
Those are not the lyrics I submitted..tried correcting them, but they remain the same. LyricFind's to blame? Ohwell.
These are the correct lyrics:
And if I lost the map If I lost it all Or fell into the trap Then she'd call:
"When you're tired of racing And you find you never left the start Come on baby, don't let it break your heart"
Though heavily we bled Still on we crawl Try to catch a cannonball And a slowly burning tide Through my veins is flowing From my shipwreck I heard her call And she said:
"When you're tired of aiming your arrows Still you never hit the mark Even in your rains and shadows Still we're never gonna part
Come on baby, don't let it break your heart Don't let it break your heart"
It's like the love story is a pirate treasure map:
"And if I lost the map If I lost it all Or fell into the trap Then she'd call"
"...Find you never left the start"
Its about the couple getting back together.
