Just a one more kiss 
He`ll have to miss 
This night with you 
Now you`re guilty of this secret love, I am too 
  
You`ll get used to telling lies 
And feeling sorry when he cries 
Now that the strings are attached 
You catch on, we`ve done our part 
  
Oh, and this is the way we make a broken heart 
  
Lesson number one 
We`ve just begun 
To Hurt him so 
  
And with lesson two 
I`ll long for you 
When nights are long 
  
And we get to lesson three 
When he gets down on his knees 
Begs me to stop at the door 
  
Oh, and this is the way we make a broken heart 
  
Well we layed a trail of tears 
For him to follow 
And we`ve thought of every line 
That he might swollow 
  
And with lesson four 
There`ll be no more 
for him to bear 
And on some dark night 
We`ll dim the lights 
On this affair 
  
And he`ll find someone new 
And she`ll likely hurt him too 
`Cause there most be millions just like you and me 
Practiced in the art 
  
Oh, and this is the way we make a broken heart 
Oh, and this is the way we make a broken heart 
Oh, and this is the way we make a broken heart 
Oh, and this is the way we make a broken heart
