Lyrics
Grey hair and wrinkles, eyes as black as night, she took the seat beside me on that long California flight. She said, honey I can see you're hurtin, but you're gonna be o.k. , I was young and in love once and I lived through my own heartache.
You know, a broken heart won't kill you but it'll sure hurt for awhile, it'll place a tear upon a face where there use to be a smile, Somewhere over Colorado, she patted my hand and said, a broken heart won't kill you honey it'll just make you wish you were dead.
She started me laughing and for awhile I forgot my pain, California sunshine replaced Carolina rain. I was feeling better when we touched down in L.A. I know she turned my life around with what she had to say.
She said, a broken heart won't kill you but it'll sure hurt for awhile, it'll place a tear upon a face where there use to be smile. Somewhere over Colorado, she patted my hand and said, a broken heart won't kill you honey, it'll just make you wish you were dead.
In the city of angels, I found my heart and lost my pain, all because of an angel that I met on that plane.
I 've learned a broken heart won't kill you but it'll sure hurt for awhile, it'll place a tear upon a face where there use to be a smile. Somewhere over Colorado, she patted my hand and said, a broken heart won't kill you honey, it'll just make you wish you were dead....it'll just make you wish you were dead.
