Don't Let Him Break Your Heart - The Blood Arm

I’ll be

Dreaming of you

In Honolulu

Swinging from a bar stool

Into the pool

Vodka on ice

Is paradise

Now that I’ve deduced

The star of your cries

Everybody says I am a blue one

Fallen from a greater height

Everybody stares at the new one

Though you know I can’t stand the sight

Don’t let him break your heart

Don’t let him break your heart

Don’t let him break your heart

Don’t let him break your heart, your heart

(listen girls there’s nothing that can’t be fixed

With a pair of brown eyes and a pot of glue)

I’ll be dancing with you

In a dirty saloon

I’ll give you a twirl

Right out of this world

Tell me you’re glad

Don’t beckon me back

Listen to the record

As it skips and spins

The alley cats they scream for you

I’m singing with the prostitutes

We spent our youth in a toll booth

Paying back all the orphaned orphans

Don’t let him break your heart

Don’t let him break your heart

Don’t let him break your heart

Don’t let him break your heart, your heart

And as the anvil drops

On another day

I couldn’t ask you to come

I wouldn’t ask you to stay

This hammer’s got no handle

Don’t let him break your heart, your heart

(arrivederci Roma)

I’ve been so down

Since I was seventeen

Pushed my hair back and

Wore a pair of bright blue jeans

I took you to see satellites

And threw you to the sharks at night

Decide decide decide

I can’t decide decide

You were like a butcher’s knife

The slaughterhouse will do just fine

Abide abide abide

I can’t abide

Why would I?

Don’t let him break your heart

Don’t let him break your heart

Don’t let him break your heart

Don’t let him break your heart

Don’t let him break your heart

Don’t let him break your heart

Don’t let him break your heart

I’m trying, I’m trying

But I don’t know where to start
