Heart Still Breaking

(Emmett Tinley)
Coming down low over the Great Lakes
I wish my heart would break now for sure
Darling’ I know it was a mistake
Only fools make, nothing more
Turning it slowly over and over
I can’t find a way to understand
Seems so long ago since we were lovers
But I still hold your face in my hands

Into Chicago
Reborn tonight
But I won’t make it
Too much remembered
A heart still breaking
Always trying to forget you

It took all my strength to rescue the winter
Torn and splintered
Not a sound came from the emptiness
The place we had entered
And all our senses
In tears were drowned

Into Chicago
Five thousand miles now
If I don’t love you
Then I need something
A heart still breaking
Always trying to forget you
