Love can make you feel just like you own the world
Or it can make you wish you've never seen it
The lips of one you love can give you cause for living
Or tell you things that never really mean it

Once I had a love
I thought that it was mine
Just for the takin'
And all at once, he left
And all at once
My heart started breaking, breaking

Judging by my love for him
I thought his love for me was just as strong
And all the things he told me
I really thought he meant them all along
But he had no plans to carry out
All these plans that we'd been making
Cause all at once, he left
And all at once
My heart started breaking, breaking

Oh all at once I realized
Love can be a cruel and hurtin' thing
It can fill your world with sunshine
But it can also bring you rain
And I know where the clouds
That gathered in my sunny sky of love
The rain came down
He let me down
He left and my heart started breaking, breaking
