Lyrics

Breakable Item
ã1999 Colin McCaffrey and Penny Towers Wilber

You charged on in like a rodeo bull
Kicking up dust and danger
Nobody here?s gonna rope you in
I better call the Lone Ranger
Just a flash of red that caught my eye
But you dragged it too far
I tried to steer clear but you caught my heart

Oh, no don?t you drop it
Don?t leave it lyin? around
Please won?t you catch it
Long before it hits the ground
I?m hoping that a broken heart
Ain?t something that you delight in
?Cause honey, my heart is a breakable item

Now you?re wondering why your hands are feeling that sting
?Cause you?re holding just a little too tight
As long as you know that it?s a delicate thing
It?ll be all right
I?m not afraid to take that ride,
So let that bell ring
But let me tell you one thing about my heart

Oh, no don?t you drop it
Don?t leave it lyin? around
Please won?t you catch it
Long before it hits the ground
I?m hoping that a broken heart
Ain?t something that you delight in
?Cause honey, my heart is a breakable item

You might think you?ve found yourself another little rodeo clown
That you can beat up and bully around while you play the star
The crowd might go quiet when this cowboy hits the ground
But nobody hears the sound of his breakin? heart

Oh, no don?t you drop it
Don?t leave it lyin? around
Please won?t you catch it
Long before it hits the ground
I?m hoping that a broken heart
Ain?t something that you delight in
?Cause honey, my heart is a breakable item
