You Can't Lose a Broken Heart
Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Then lose your guy
You can't lose a broken heart
If you ever break up
Then try to make up
It's tough to make a brand new start
Think it over
While strolling neath the moon
Don't say things in December
You'll regret in June
Ware your remarks
Before you speak
Or you may be sorry soon
Don't be erratic
Be diplomatic
To keep your heart's in tune
Cruel harsh words
Often spoken
Will upset your apple cart
So don't lose your head
Then lose your guy
'Cause, you can't lose a broken heart
Don't lose your head
Then lose your girl
You can't lose a broken heart
If you ever break up
Then try to make up
It's tough to make a brand new start
Take a walk
And think it over
While strolling neath the moon
Don't say things in December
Baby you'll regret in June
Ware your remarks
Before you speak
Or you may be sorry soon, baby
Don't be erratic
Be diplomatic
To keep your heart's in tune
Cruel harsh words
Often spoken
Will upset your apple cart, baby
So don't lose your head
Then lose your girl
'Cause, you can't lose a broken heart
No, you can't, can't lose a broken heart
