Song Lyrics

I never had much luck with romance
Anytime it ever got near me
Love seemed to slip through my hands
Took me low as a girl could be

So if I act a little gun shy
Don't think it's 'cause I don't want you
I know you'll understand just why
When I tell you what my heart's been through

It's been bulldozed
Deep froze heaven knows
It's a true connoisseur of pain
It's been lost, double crossed
Rolled up and hand tossed
Left out in the pourin' rain

It's been beat down, kicked around
Stomped into the hard ground
Slammed like a finger in the door
But honey, you're the break
My heart's been waitin' for

You're like a breath of fresh air
Dry land to a ship at sea
Boy, I'm sendin' up my last flare
I think you're gonna rescue me

Baby, I'm countin' on your touch
To get us back on the mend
My heart's gotten hurt so much
It sure could use a friend

'Cause it's been bulldozed
Deep froze heaven knows
It's a true connoisseur of pain
It's been lost, double crossed
Rolled up and hand tossed
Left out in the pourin' rain

It's been beat down, kicked around
Stomped into the hard ground
Slammed like a finger in the door
But honey, you're the break
My heart's been waitin' for

It's been beat down, kicked around
Stomped into the hard ground
Slammed like a finger in the door
But honey, you're the break
My heart's been waitin' for, yeah
