From The Bottom Of My Broken Heart

"Never look back," we said 
how was I to know I'd miss you so? 
Loneliness up ahead, 
emptiness behind 
Where do I go? 

And you didn't hear 
all my joy through my tears 
all my hopes through my fears 
did you know, still I miss you somehow? 

From the bottom of my broken heart 
there's just a thing or two I'd like you to know 
you were my first love, 
you were my true love 
from the first kisses to the very last rose 
from the bottom of my broken heart 
even through time may find me somebody new 
you were my real love 
I never knew love 
'til there was you 
from the bottom of my broken heart 


"Baby," I said, 
"please stay. 
Give our love a chance for one more day" 
we could have worked things out 
taking time is what love's all about 

But you put a dart 
through my dreams 
through my heart 
and I'm back where I started again 
never thought it would end 

From the bottom of my broken heart 
there's just a thing or two I'd like you to know 
you were my first love, 
you were my true love 
from the first kisses to the very last rose 
from the bottom of my broken heart 
even through time may find me somebody new 
you were my real love 
I never knew love 
'til there was you 
from the bottom of my broken heart 

You promised yourself 
but to somebody else 
and you made it so perfectly clear 
still I wish you were here 

From the bottom of my broken heart 
there's just a thing or two I'd like you to know 
you were my first love, 
you were my true love 
from the first kisses to the very last rose 
from the bottom of my broken heart 
even through time may find me somebody new 
you were my real love 
I never knew love 
'til there was you 
from the bottom of my broken heart 

"Never look back," we said 
how was I to know I'd miss you so?
