Text: Kenny Rogers. How Do I Break It To My Heart.

There's your picture by the bed
I'm gonna leave it where it is
'Cause if I tear it out tonight
My heart would know
But something ain't right
Between me and you

I'm gonna lie here in the dark
And pretend you're in my arms
And if I can't keep on crying
Out your name
My heart would think you're here beside me
And things are still the same

My mind knows, it's over
But how do I break it to my heart
If I let it down easy
It'll still be torn apart

And if I tell it the truth
Then the pain is gonna start
My mind knows, it's over
But how do I break it to my heart

When I saw him by your side
I guess, it opened up my eyes
And my ears can finally hear
Your soft goodbye
But my heart still said on loving you tonight
And for the rest of its life

My mind knows, it's over
But how do I break it to my heart
If I let it down easy
It would still be torn apart

And if I tell it the truth
Then the pain is sure to start
My mind knows, it's over
But how do I break it to my heart
How do I break it to my heart
