I heard it, the news I listened without you Even though my pain was unbearable The old scratchy sound From the radio, black and round I decided the pain was shareable.
To the diner I went, There was Mae Ruth Who'll feel lonely with an empty room. Mr. Baker and his crying wife, The son, stabbed with a knife Or shot, some war casualty Even Old Bill, tear in his eye His grandson hadn't seen him cry And I guess now he never will. Saddest of them all, Little Susie, so small Whispered,"Mommy, where did Daddy go?"
But for you, my darling I'd do most anything Just to bring you back home. I'll always love you, my dear Give everything to hear You're voice just one more time Your soft embrace, Oh, the dreams we had chased, And we were supposed to be man and wife. I feel like I'm fading, Slowly wading And drowning in the sea I feel like it will Get me real ill But it was you who died of a "broken" heart.
