“Don't go breaking my heart.
I couldn't if I tried.
Honey if I get restless…
Baby you're not that kind.Don't go breaking my heart.
You take the weight off me.
Honey when you knock on my door,
I gave you my key.”

“In my heart a place,
A most special place,
And it's all for you,
You're my girl, you're my, angel,
The will's the same for us,
Honey they can't be wrong,
Cause everybody knows it was hard to break the sorrow,
Then you came along”
