I'm gonna take it to the limit of my love
Before I turn and walk away
I've had enough of holding on
The promises of yesterday
Every day of my life, it seems
Trouble's knocking at my door
It's hard to try and satisfy
When you don't know what you're fighting for
Time and again, I sing your song
But I've been runnin' on empty far too long
I've had enough holdin' on to the past
Make no mistake, it could be your last
Don't break my heart again
Like you did before
Don't break my heart again
I couldn't take anymore
I never hide the feeling inside
And though I'm standing with my back to the wall
I know that even in a summer love
A little bit of rain must fall
But every road I take, I know
Where it's gonna lead me to
Because I've traveled every highway
And they all keep coming back to you
Time and again, I sing your song
But I've been runnin' on empty far too long
I've had enough holdin' on to the past
Make no mistake, it could be your last
So don't break my heart again
Like you did before
Don't break my heart again
I couldn't take anymore
Don't break my heart
Don't break my heart again
Like you did before
Don't break my heart again
I couldn't take anymore
Don't break my heart again
Like you did before, baby
Don't break my heart again
I couldn't take anymore
Don't break my heart again
Like you did before
Don't break my heart again
I couldn't take anymore
Baby, baby, oh, baby
Don't break my heart again
Before I turn and walk away
I've had enough of holding on
The promises of yesterday
Every day of my life, it seems
Trouble's knocking at my door
It's hard to try and satisfy
When you don't know what you're fighting for
Time and again, I sing your song
But I've been runnin' on empty far too long
I've had enough holdin' on to the past
Make no mistake, it could be your last
Don't break my heart again
Like you did before
Don't break my heart again
I couldn't take anymore
I never hide the feeling inside
And though I'm standing with my back to the wall
I know that even in a summer love
A little bit of rain must fall
But every road I take, I know
Where it's gonna lead me to
Because I've traveled every highway
And they all keep coming back to you
Time and again, I sing your song
But I've been runnin' on empty far too long
I've had enough holdin' on to the past
Make no mistake, it could be your last
So don't break my heart again
Like you did before
Don't break my heart again
I couldn't take anymore
Don't break my heart
Don't break my heart again
Like you did before
Don't break my heart again
I couldn't take anymore
Don't break my heart again
Like you did before, baby
Don't break my heart again
I couldn't take anymore
Don't break my heart again
Like you did before
Don't break my heart again
I couldn't take anymore
Baby, baby, oh, baby
Don't break my heart again
