Only I Can Break Your Heart

Only I Can Break Your Heart
words and music by Andy Campolieto

Somebody else might buy you roses
Or leave you love notes on your car
Somebody else might call you beautiful
But only I can break your heart

Only I would leave you stranded in a station in the rain
With a suitcase full of dreams that won't come true

Somebody else might light your smokes
Or sing you love songs in the park
Somebody else may hold you till you fall asleep
But only I can break your heart

Only I would leave you shattered in the kitchen by the sink
Trying to catch my eyes to read the lies

CHORUS
If it's you who I want
If it's you who I need when I breathe
Then tell me where I've got it wrong
You can try to pretend
We're better off in the end but only love
Will keep you up at night
To watch the stars and cry

Somebody else may be the one
Your shining knight in tarnished times
To give you everything that you deserve
And who will never break your heart

Only I would paint a watercolor sunset in your sky
And wash it all away before it dries

CHORUS

Somebody else might buy you roses
But only I can break your heart
