The Brokenhearted Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well darling, oh won't you come a little closer?
I promise pretty darling, I didn't know what I was saying
And now I'm praying that you won't say it's over
Come here pretty baby and rest your head upon my shoulder
Just one kiss and we started
[Chorus]
Now don't leave me to the brokenhearted
The brokenhearted, the brokenhearted
And tell me that you need me
[Verse 2]
Well now baby, the lonely nights keep growing longer
And my love for you just keeps growing stronger
Like a wheel of chance so endlessly turning
My fate lay in your hands, my heart forever burning
In a sweet fire your kiss started
[Chorus]
Now don't leave me to the brokenhearted
The brokenhearted, the brokenhearted
And tell me that you love me
Tell me that you want me, girl
[Bridge]
The cruel mistakes I've made, the hard price that I've paid
For the good times and the laughter
Girl, I should have known for the indifference that I've shown
I'd pay forever after
And darling, now all I'm trying to say is
Well darling, oh won't you come a little closer?
I promise pretty darling, I didn't know what I was saying
And now I'm praying that you won't say it's over
Come here pretty baby and rest your head upon my shoulder
Just one kiss and we started
[Chorus]
Now don't leave me to the brokenhearted
The brokenhearted, the brokenhearted
And tell me that you need me
[Verse 2]
Well now baby, the lonely nights keep growing longer
And my love for you just keeps growing stronger
Like a wheel of chance so endlessly turning
My fate lay in your hands, my heart forever burning
In a sweet fire your kiss started
[Chorus]
Now don't leave me to the brokenhearted
The brokenhearted, the brokenhearted
And tell me that you love me
Tell me that you want me, girl
[Bridge]
The cruel mistakes I've made, the hard price that I've paid
For the good times and the laughter
Girl, I should have known for the indifference that I've shown
I'd pay forever after
And darling, now all I'm trying to say is
[Verse 3]
Passion and love, they have a way
Of slipping into blackness, uncared for of slipping away
The deck is cut, the cards turned, the hand is played
And all we ever hope for burns to ashes and drifts away
Now don't let our love slip into this darkness
[Chorus]
Don't leave me to the brokenhearted
The brokenhearted, the brokenhearted
And tell me that you love me
Tell me that you need me
[Outro]
Tell me that you love me
Tell me that you want me
Tell me that you need me
Tell me that you want me
Tell me that you love me
Yeah, tell me that you love me
Tell me that you love me
Tell me that you want me
And come on now, darling
Say it right now, baby
Say it right now, darling
Tell me that you love me
Passion and love, they have a way
Of slipping into blackness, uncared for of slipping away
The deck is cut, the cards turned, the hand is played
And all we ever hope for burns to ashes and drifts away
Now don't let our love slip into this darkness
[Chorus]
Don't leave me to the brokenhearted
The brokenhearted, the brokenhearted
And tell me that you love me
Tell me that you need me
[Outro]
Tell me that you love me
Tell me that you want me
Tell me that you need me
Tell me that you want me
Tell me that you love me
Yeah, tell me that you love me
Tell me that you love me
Tell me that you want me
And come on now, darling
Say it right now, baby
Say it right now, darling
Tell me that you love me
