HeartbreakerDolly Parton

Released: July 17, 1978

Songwriter: Carole Bayer Sager David Wolfert

Producer: Dolly Parton Gary Klein

Here I sit all alone
Thinking about what I should have known
You made me think that I could need you
You weaved your magic spell and I believed you

Looking back on you and me
Promises that will never be
I truly thought that we were lovers
But now I find I'm just like all the others

Heartbreaker, wish I'd seen, but love is blind
Sweet little love maker, taking my heart and leave me behind
Heartbreaker, couldn't you be just a little more kind to me?

Played with fire, felt its burn
I would have thought that I would have learned
I melted every time you kissed me
Each time you would leave, I thought that you would miss me

Heartbreaker, wish that I'd seen, but love is blind
Sweet little love maker, taking my heart and leave me behind
Heartbreaker, couldn't you be just a little more kind to me?

Heartbreaker, wish I'd seen, but love is blind
Sweet little love maker, taking my heart and leave me behind
Heartbreaker, couldn't you be just a little more kind to me?

Heartbreaker, wish I'd seen, but love is blind
Sweet little love maker, taking my heart and leave me behind
Heartbreaker, couldn't you be just a little more kind to me?

Dolly Parton

Dolly Rebecca Parton (born January 19, 1946) is an American singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, actress, author, and philanthropist, best known for her work in country music

Beginning her career as a child performer, Parton issued a few modestly successful singles from 1959 through the mid-1960s, showcasing her distinctive soprano voice. She came to greater prominence in 1967 as a featured performer on singer Porter Wagoner’s weekly television program; their first duet single, a cover of Tom Paxton’s “The Last Thing on My Mind”, was a top-ten hit on the country singles charts, and led to several successful albums before they ended their partnership in 1974. Moving towards mainstream pop music, Parton’s 1977 single “Here You Come Again” was a success on both the country and pop charts. A string of pop-country hits followed into the mid-1980s, the most successful being her 1981 hit 9 to 5" (from the film of the same name), and her 1983 duet with Kenny Rogers “Islands in the Stream”, both of which topped the U.S. pop and country singles charts. A pair of albums recorded with Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris were among her later successes. In the late 1990s, Parton returned to classic country/bluegrass with a series of acclaimed recordings
