Words Can Break Your Heart Lyrics

INTRO: G Gsus4 G Dsus4/G (x2)
VERSE 1:
A little time, a little distance, a little space to think
Might be all we need, right now
I don't know if we've had too much, or not enough to drink
But, we've got to get over this, somehow
CHORUS:
It only takes a breath or two, to tear your world apart
su
Sticks and stones may break your bones, but words can break your heart
VERSE 2:
Cutting words from careless lips, softly spoken
Oh, you can do damage and never scream or shout
Emotions get the best of us; we say things we don't mean
And it's too late to take 'em back once they're out
CHORUS:
It only takes a breath or two, to tear your world apart
Sticks and stones may break your bones, but words can break your heart
BRIDGE:
Oh, can we just start over? Nobody won; what's done is done, we've got to let it go
FINAL CHORUS:
It only takes a breath or two, to tear your world apart
Sticks and stones may break your bones, but words can break your heart
