[00:06.99]At a table for two with a romantic view,
[00:12.92]He said: "There's somethin' that you need to know.
[00:19.60]"I don't usually date, so if I hesitate,
[00:25.87]"It's that I'm takin' it slow."
[00:31.72]He said: "Darlin', I don't want to hurt you,"
[00:38.54]As he gently reached out for her hand.
[00:44.87]She laughed as she picked up her menu,
[00:50.53]And said: "Mister, you don't understand.
[00:56.07]
[00:56.88]"I've been loved, I've been left.
[00:59.90]"I've been wronged by the best.
[01:03.10]"I've had hopes that were shattered in two.
[01:09.82]"I've heard promises spoken,
[01:12.59]"I've had dreams left so broken,
[01:15.78]"There was no chance they'd ever come true.
[01:22.55]"It ain't easy to see by looking at me,
[01:28.70]"But there's no hell I haven't walked through.
[01:35.42]"If you're worried, that's fine,
[01:38.57]"But this heart of mine's,
[01:41.56]"Been broken by better than you."
[01:45.97]
[01:51.35]When dinner was done, she said: "I had fun."
[01:57.41]As they walked to her door, he smiled.
[02:03.66]"He said: "It's only ten, could I come in?
[02:09.90]"Maybe we could just talk for a while."
[02:15.63]She said: "Honey, I know what you're after,
[02:22.70]"And as much as I'd like you to stay.
[02:29.10]"Nothing good ever lasted,
[02:35.39]"When it gets started that way."
[02:39.53]
[02:40.99]"I've been loved, I've been left.
[02:44.09]"I've been wronged by the best.
[02:47.19]"I've had hopes that were shattered in two.
[02:53.55]"I've heard promises spoken,
[02:56.55]"I've had dreams left so broken,
[02:59.80]"There was no chance they'd ever come true.
[03:06.73]"It ain't easy to see but take it from me,
[03:12.86]"There's no hell I haven't walked through.
[03:19.50]"An' I won't cross that line,
[03:22.68]"'Cause this heart of mine's,
[03:25.58]"Been broken by better than you."
[03:30.81]
[03:31.89]"No I won't cross that line,
[03:35.39]"'Cause this heart of mine's,
[03:38.48]"Been broken by better than you."
