When a Heart Breaks

It's the closing of a door
A phone that doesn't ring no more
It's a house filled with regret
And a letter left unread

It's a train off in the night
Motel rooms and truck stop lights
Whiskey poured into the glass
All the questions you won't ask

You relive every mistake
Things you did and didn't say
Curse the night and damn the day
When a heart breaks

When you've cried all you can cry
And the hours just crawl by
Nowhere to turn nowhere to be
Can't hold on to a memory

Miles and miles of empty road
It's a hurt that won't let go
No one there to call your name
Days and nights all feel the same

You relive every mistake
Things you did and didn't say
Curse the night and damn the day
When a heart breaks

What in the world's it gonna take
Time heals all or so they say
But it sure don't feel that way
When a heart breaks
So you relive every mistake
Things you did and didn't say
Curse the night and damn the day
When a heart breaks
