one broken heart

young girl you really did believe in him

still he broke your heart with lies

you've got to be stronger

the pain

it won't last much longer

don't lose respect for yourself

no

sweet young thing

no

don't lose your head

or by the time you're seventeen you'll be waking every morning

with a stranger in your bed

one broken heart

i know it cuts like a knife

but one broken heart is no reason to give up on life

girl

be waiting

be anticipating

for that new love to come along

and one broken heart

you'll survive

so sad

you lived for and now you're dying for love

but you won't find it like that

no peace and calm in the strength of a stranger's arms

baby wake up to yourself

love ain't guaranteed

no

but it sure is worth a new start

or by the time you're twenty-one

you'll be lying in a stranger's bed

dying from a broken heart

one broken heart

i know it cuts like a knife

but one broken heart is no reason to give up on life

girl

be waiting

be anticipating

for that new love to come along

and one broken heart

you'll survive

and i'm hoping

i'm really hoping

that sweet love will come your way

to mend one broken heart

you'll survive

one broken heart

you'll survive

one broken heart

you'll survive
