Lyrics

EVERY SECOND SOMEONE BREAKS A HEART

VERSE: IT?S A DANGEROUS WORLD WE LIVE IN, CRIME IS EVERYWHERE
AND THERE?S ALWAYS SOME SAD STORY GOIN? DOWN
YOU CAN READ IT IN THE PAPER, YOU CAN SEE IT ON THE AIR
IT?S AN EVIL EPIDEMIC GOIN? ROUND

CHORUS: BUT NOBODY SEEMS TO NOTICE THE SADDEST CRIME OF ALL
OR JUST HOW MANY TIMES A DAY SOMEONE TAKES THEIR LOVE AWAY
AND THE NATIONAL STATISTICS NEVER PUT IT IN THE CHART
BUT EVERY SECOND SOMEONE BREAKS A HEART

VERSE: THERE A WOMAN OUT THERE SOMEWHERE WHO FEELS SHE LOST HER LIFE
CUZ A MAN JUST SHOT HER WORLD DOWN, AND IT HURTS
THERE?S A GUY WHO JUST GOT TAKEN, AND IT CUTS HIM LIKE A KNIFE
SOME GIRL STOLE HIS HEART AND LEFT WITHOUT A WORD

CHORUS: THEY DON?T CALL IT A CRIME OF PASSION, BUT IT KILLS YOU ALL THE SAME
IT?S MURDER WHEN A TRUE LOVE DIES RIGHT BEFORE YOUR VERY EYES
AND AS SOON AS ONE IS OVER, ANOTHER ONE WILL START
EVERY SECOND SOMEONE BREAKS, SOMEONE BREAKS A HEART

VERSE: IF YOU?VE GOT SOMEONE WHO LOVES YOU, BE CAREFUL ALL THE TIME
DO YOU KNOW WHERE YOUR LOVE IS TONIGHT
CUZ THERE?S ALWAYS SOMEONE TRYING TO FIND THE PERFECT CRIME
AND YOU NEVER KNOW JUST WHEN THEY?LL STRIKE

CHORUS: SO YOU BETTER WATCH YOUR WOMAN, AND YOU BETTER WATCH YOUR MAN
CUZ NO ONE?S SAFE WHEN LOVE?S AT STAKE, ANYBODY?S HEART CAN BREAK
AND THE NEXT TIME THAT IT HAPPENS, YOU MIGHT PLAY THE LOSING PART
EVERY SECOND SOMEONE BREAKS A HEART
EVERY SECOND SOMEONE BREAKS A HEART
EVERY SECOND SOMEONE BREAKS A HEART
