Lyrics Bernadette Peters

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

And now I am barely hangin' on

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
