Gretta Ray
Heartbreak Baby
[Verse 1]
Spring is in the air
Cherry blossom everywhere
And yet another love has come to grief
But none of it is new now
Predictably again, I've been let down
Been the bigger person
Breathed, lied through my teeth while

[Pre-Chorus]
I can barely sleep
All the dreams are back
Working overtime to remain intact
Gotta make a list
Gonna face the facts
Soldier on to save me
No, I won’t be weak
But I won't be mad
Kind of wish I was
But it's mostly just sad
If there’s one thing that I know it's that I've got it in the bag
Do you blame me?

[Chorus]
'Cause I am a heartbreak baby
No one is more equipped than me
At tending to wounds that tend to bleed
Openly
Don't you see
That I am a heartbreak baby
Been gathering goddamn expertise
In tending to wounds then mending me
As we speak
I'm in too deep
And that's what makes me a heartbreak baby
That's what makes me a heartbreak baby
[Verse 2]
You say you did your best
Considering the circumstances
You talk as though your reasons are sincere
I guess that everything we shared
That led me to believe you cared
Couldn’t overturn your fear to persevere

[Pre-Chorus]
While you may feel relief
Soon as I am gone
I’ll begin rebuilding with blinkers on
And if there's one thing I can do it’s I can put it in a song
And do you blame me?

[Chorus]
'Cause I am a heartbreak baby
No one is more equipped than me
At tending to wounds that tend to bleed
Annually
Can't you see
That I am a heartbreak baby
Been gathering goddamn expertise
In tending to wounds then mending me
As we speak
I am in too deep
And that's what makes me a heartbreak baby
That’s what makes me a heartbreak baby
[Bridge]
Now we are both fucked up
This shit's rough
But I shine bright when you break me
Best of luck finding one
Who loves as hard as a heartbreak baby
Fucked up
‘Cause this shit's rough
But I shine bright when you break me
Good luck finding someone one
Who's gonna love

[Chorus]
As hard as a heartbreak baby
No one is more equipped than me
At tending to wounds that tend to bleed
Openly
God, I hope you see
That I am a heartbreak baby
Been gathering goddamn expertise
In tending to wounds then mending me
So when we next speak
It'll be with ease
And that's what makes me a heartbreak baby
That's what makes me a heartbreak baby
[Outro]
I shine bright when you break me
I shine bright when you break me
I shine bright
That's what makes me a heartbreak baby
