You said you loved to watch me sleep
You put your head down on my chest
To hear me breathe

Go on, take my last breath from me
I don't want to live no more
And cut my eyes so I can't see
I can't see you looking back as you walk out the door

Cold, hard heart
Cold, cruel heart
What's it gonna take
To break your cold hard heart

I was a lover lost at sea
You found me washed up on the beach
You took me home, you gave me breakfast
I said I'd offer you protection, but you didn't charge a fee

Cold, hard heart
Cold, cruel heart
What's it gonna take
To break your cold hard heart
Cold, cruel heart
Cold, cruel heart
What's it gonna take
To break your cold hard heart

What are you hiding underneath that shirt
If you're the one to run babe
Then you don't feel the hurt

Her hair so brown, and eyes so green
You used to say I made good company
She'd bring me wine and sip her tea
Then you'd give yourself what you could give to me

Cold, hard heart
Cold, cruel heart
What's it gonna take
To break your cold hard heart
Cold, cruel heart
Cold, cruel heart
What's it gonna take
To break your cold hard heart
What's it gonna take...
