Lyrics: Some Broken Hearts Never Mend
Coffee black, cigarettes,
start this day, like all the rest,
First thing every morning that I do,
Is start missing youSome broken hearts never mend,
Some memories never end,
Some tears will never dry,
My love for you will never dieRendezvous in the night,
A willing woman to hold me tight,
But in the middle of love’s embrace,
I see your faceSome broken hearts never mend,
Some memories never end,
Some tears will never dry,
My love for you will never die
