I held her close to me
 Coz I know she breaks so easily
 And then I told her
 Though I knew no matter how I tried to console her
 Then she'd do the best she could
 But there are times the best is no damn good
 And no matter how you try to be kind
 There's always still a part of you you'll leave behind
 When they fall apart
 There's no easy way to break somebody's heart.
 
 I lied and told her she'll be fine
 Though we both knew it was just a lie
 I had to do it 
 Coz I had said anything to help me get through it.
 And she reached out for my hand 
 And her simple touch was more than I could stand 
 And I had to turn away coz I knew 
 All the hurt that she was feeling, I was feeling too
 When they fall apart 
 There's no easy way to break somebody's heart.
 
 She could've gotten angry
 And made me feel like a guilty child
 But I realized that never was her style
 I wanted her to hurt me 
 And not treat me like a friend
 I wanted her to say "there'd be someday 
 I'd come crawling on my knees to ask her back again"
 But she acted like a lady till the end
 Oh, what a lady!
 
 I thought that she'd bring down
 But she smiled at me and never made a sound
 And I guess she understood in her way
 Coz her silence told me everything she could not say
 When they fall apart
 There's easy way to break
 There's just no easy way
 There's no easy way to break somebody's heart...
