Lyrics Barry McGuire

Barry McGuire

Heartbreaker

You walk the streets of cities

Lookin' for a home

The only bed you'll ever find

Is the pavement that you roam

But there's a heart that's achin'

With a pain you'll never know

'Cause it's the heart you're breakin'

The One who loves you so

Heartbreaker

Ah, His heart is broken too

Searching through the lonely streets

To find a way to you

Heartbreaker

Don't you run away and hide

Because He had a broken heart

The Son of God died

Your tears are burnin' rivers

Rollin' down your cheeks

You think that life is hopeless

And you haven't smiled for weeks

But hope is just within your grasp

If you will just let go

And mend the heart you're breakin'

The One who loves you so

Heartbreaker

Ah, His heart is broken too

Searching through the lonely streets

To find a way to you

Heartbreaker

Don't you run away and hide

Because He had a broken heart

The Son of God died

You think that life has cheated you

And left you all alone

There's an emptiness that gnaws inside

And hurts you to the bone

But there is One to heal your wounds

He's wantin' you to know

He sees your heart that's breakin'

He cares and loves you so

Heartbreaker

Ah, His heart is broken too

Searching through the lonely streets

To find a way to you

Heartbreaker

Don't you run away and hide

Because He had a broken heart

The Son of God died

Heartbreaker

Ah, His heart is broken too

Searching through the lonely streets

To find a way to you

Heartbreaker

Don't you run away and hide

Because He had a broken heart

The Son of God died
