Lyrics I Never Thought I'd Break - Bernadette Peters

I Never Thought I'd Break

I held up pretty well
The first few days I even tried to dying
To get my mind off you
Friends said I look like hell
They said they snapped like that
If they’d been through
What I’d been through
They’d simply fall apart
Well, I am about to start
I never thought I’d break
I thought I could hang on till all the hurt
Had all run out
And I’d be fine
I guess I am not that kind
Not the kind to fall apart
When lovers go away until today
It finally hit me, you’re gone
I never thought I’d break
I never thought you’d make me miss your face
And make me ache to hear your voice
But now I have no choice
I’ve always had the answer
You were my one mistake
Until the day we broke up I never thought I’d break
I never thought I’d break
I never thought you’d make me miss your face
And make me ache to hear your voice
But now I have no choice
I’ve always had the answers
You were my one mistake
Until the day I woke up I thought I’d do what I could judge
Until that day we broke up I never thought I’d break
