From the recording Distant Thunder
Lyrics
VERSE
Only so many times can you put your heart on the line
’Cause there’s things out there that will hurt it bad
I’ve had to find the strength I didn’t know I had
CHORUS
(’Cause) (Now) (Yes) A heart it can be broken only so many times
And then it’s done
My heart don’t want to be no more the victim of your crime
Hit and run
Yes, a heart it can be broken only so many times
VERSE
I let you pull me in and then you turn me away
I let you under my skin and then you make me pay
But your price is too high; I don’t wanta die
Repeat CHORUS/SOLO/BRIDGE
They say in your life your heart beats only so many times
And I’m thinkin’ all this heartbreak is like a warnin’ sign
Repeat CHORUS (2x)/TAG
Yes, a heart it can be broken only so many times
