When you call she doesn't answer, when you write she doesn't answer
You go out you see him with her, she told you she was sick at home
The ring you gave her thrown away with all the letters

And When you see him with her, he doesn't even care at all

And she follows him around like you follow her around

And he doesn't even care and you're figuring out
The only way you're gonna keep somebody around
Well I'm about to let you know


There's something I don't wanna understand
The only way a woman's gonna want a man

The only way you'll ever keep her in your hands
Is breaking apart her heart
Don't tell her she is the reason that you live

Don't give her everything that you got to give
If you want to keep the girl for as long as you live
Just break it apart her heart


Can't you see the way she's crying
Well that's what keeps her trying, she knew that she could have you

And he don't give her what she wants
There's truth about this, you say you want to be noticed
Well if you want to be noticed you've gotta learn to break some hearts

Don't try to understand

There's something I don't wanna understand

The only way a woman's gonna want a man
The only way you'll ever keep her in your hands
Is breaking apart her heart

Don't tell her she is the reason that you live
Don't give her everything that you got to give
If you want to keep the girl for as long as you live

Just break it apart her heart

Can't you see what you've done?

What I've become, what I've become
Can't you see? Can't you see?


I don't understand this cruelty
I don't understand but now I see


There's something I don't wanna understand
The only way a woman is gonna want a man
The only way you'll ever keep her in your hands

Is breaking apart her heart
Don't tell her she is the reason that you live
Don't give her everything that you got to give

If you want to keep the girl for as long as you live
Just break apart her heart


I don't understand this cruelty
I don't understand it's just not me
I don't understand this cruelty

But now I see...
