It wasn't long ago that you couldn't see
 The pain you put me in when you walked out

 Don't bring me your rainy day
 There's just so much a girl can take
 And all the tears in the world won't help you now

 I can't tell you it's alright
 I won't be holding you tonight
 You want the love you threw away
 All you're gonna get is a whole lot of pain

 Better your heart than mine
 Better luck to you the next time
 You broke my heart in two
 Now it's coming back on you
 It's your turn to cry
 Better your heart than mine

 You come waltzing through my door
 Like I ain't been here with you before
 Don't tell me that new love done put you down

 Don't you tell me it's alright
 You won't be holding me tonight
 You want the love you threw away
 All you're gonna get is a whole lot of pain

 Better your heart than mine
 Better luck to you the next time
 You broke my heart in two
 Now it's coming back on you
 It's your turn to cry
 Better your heart than mine
