Broken Heart
Billy Holiday & Louis Armstrong Lyrics

Don't lose your head
Maintain composure and don't let your emotions consume you

Then lose your guy
Only to then lose the person you love

You can't lose a broken heart
Even if you lose the person, the pain of a broken heart stays with you

If you ever break up
In the event of a separation or breakup

Then try to make up
Attempt to reconcile and fix the relationship

It's tough to make a brand new start
Starting fresh and rebuilding after a break is challenging

Take a walk
Take some time for yourself

Think it over
Reflect on the situation and your feelings

While strolling neath the moon
During a leisurely walk under the moonlight

Don't say things in December
Avoid uttering words that may cause regret

You'll regret in June
That may lead to remorse later on

Ware your remarks
Choose your words carefully

Before you speak
Think before expressing yourself

Or you may be sorry soon
Or you might end up regretting it later

Don't be erratic
Avoid being unpredictable or impulsive

Be diplomatic
Handle the situation with tact and sensitivity

To keep your heart's in tune
So that your emotions and well-being are in harmony

Cruel harsh words
Mean and hurtful words

Often spoken
Frequently expressed

Will upset your apple cart
Will disrupt and unsettle your life

No, you can't, can't lose a broken heart
Indicating that once a heart is broken, the pain lingers and cannot be easily discarded
