Not the Kinda Heart That Falls Apart (With Prelude) Lyrics

You gave me love, and gave me life

You gave me a home

You said my heart was safe with you

N' I'd never be alone

You fooled around n' broke my heart

You walked out the door

Sitting here alone in this space

It no longer feels like home

But hey, I'm not the kind of heart

That falls apart

People let me tell you the story

I hold no grudge

Let me start at the start

N' let you be the judge

Wasn't looking when I found the one

Or so I thought

Not ready, been hurt, n' ya

Guarding my heart

Still

Ended up with a cheater

Who got caught

I'm not the kind of heart

That falls apart

I'm not weak

Even when my pain is off the chart

Off the chart

Still every hurt and every heartbreak

Like a hammer to the stone

But I'd rather not be with a cheater and be

On my own

Love is blind n' we had a connection

I took a chance

In hind sight should have never gone

On that dance

It wasn't once or twice no, it was

All the time

A cheater is a cheater is a cheater

It's a crime of the heart

A cheater is cheater is a cheater

It's a crime of the heart

A cheater is cheater is a cheater

Such a crime of the heart

I'm not the kind of heart

That falls apart

I'm not weak

Even when my pain is off the chart

Off the chart

Still every hurt and every heartbreak

Like a hammer to the stone

But I'd rather not be with a cheater and be

On my own

How can I forgive when you said "I did nothing wrong"

I had a good cry

Tore up your love letters

And, and wrote this song

I'm not the kind of heart

That falls apart

I'm not weak

Even when my pain is off the chart

Still every hurt and every heartbreak

Like a hammer to the stone

But I'd rather not be with a cheater and be

On my own

I'm not the kind of heart

That falls apart

I'm not weak

Even when my pain is off the chart

Off the chart

Still every hurt and every heartbreak

Like a hammer to the stone

But I'd rather not be with a cheater and be

On my own

A cheater is a cheater is a cheater

It's a crime of the heart

A cheater is cheater is a cheater

It's crime of the heart

A cheater is cheater is a cheater

Such a crime of the heart

I'd rather not be with a cheater and be, on my own
