Lyrics If You Had a Heart to Break - Chris Robinson Brotherhood

If You Had a Heart to Break

To a broken man
You gave assistance
Only to tank while the patient was in pain
Love… has cruel ambition
It’s like a three-legged dog
Left out shivering in the rainIf you had a heart to break
I might find a tear to cry
Too easy to call it a mistake
Too hard to know it was a lie… In my moment of need
Our glass ran empty
And I found time is far cast on
You were somewhere else
With someone different
Same cold eyes, in brand new clothes
If you had a heart to break
I might find a tear to cry
Too easy to call it a mistake
Too hard to know it was a lie… Buttons, Bibles and strings
And all that charity brings
Could’ve been, could’ve been any little thing… Well you have held the will
And you’ve held ransom
For all the idols that you have defamed
Well, the last time I saw you
You called me 'Handsome'
Now I know, oh, you just couldn’t remember my nameIf you had a heart to break
I might find a tear to cry
Too easy to call it a mistake
Too hard to know it was a lie…
