Heartbreaker
Jayme Dee Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I put on this dress for you
Bet you're dreaming you could take it off
Standing in my high heel shoes
Seems is if your eyes can't get enough
Am I the girl for you? Probably not,
But you're pretty hot
Didn't say you're going to,
But don't fall in love with me

I'm a heartbreaker gotta let you know
I'm a risk taker if you want to go with me
Don't you cry when it's time for good bye, love
Au revoir, C'est la vie, Fly away dove
I'm a heartbreaker and my soul is free
I'm a gonna take you on a ride but promise me
Don't you cry when it's time for good bye, love
Au revoir, C'est la vie, Fly away dove

Heard they wrote a song about me,
Called the ballad of Jayme Dee
I never meant to hurt no one,
I was only having fun
That's why you should stay out of the kitchen,
You get the burn, haven't you learned
You've been warned but I'm just fishing,
Don't fall in love with me

I'm a heart breaker gotta let you know
I'm a risk taker if you want to go with me
Don't you cry when it's time for good bye, love
Au revoir, C'est la vie, Fly away dove
I'm a heartbreaker and my soul is free
I'm a gonna take you on a ride but promise me
Don't you cry when it's time for good bye, love
Au revoir, C'est la vie, Fly away dove

Stop now
You're the one who is bruised now
You'll be falling and I don't got the patience
To sweep up the pieces and put you together again, oh again

Cuz' I'm a heart breaker gotta let you know
I'm a risk taker if you want to go with me
Don't you cry when it's time for good bye, love
Au revoir, C'est la vie, Fly away dove

I'm a heartbreaker and my soul is free
I'm a gonna take you on a ride but promise me
Don't you cry when it's time for good bye, love
Au revoir, C'est la vie, Fly away dove

Cuz' I'm a heart breaker gotta let you know
I'm a risk taker if you want to go with me
Don't you cry when it's time for good bye, love
Au revoir, C'est la vie, Fly away dove

I'm a heartbreaker and my soul is free
I'm a gonna take you on a ride but promise me




Don't you cry when it's time for good bye, love
Au revoir, C'est la vie, Fly away dove

Overall Meaning

The song "Heartbreaker" by Jayme Dee is a perfect description of a girl who is fully aware of the effect she has on men but is unwilling to stop teasing them. The opening lines "I put on this dress for you, Bet you're dreaming you could take it off" indicate that the girl is trying to attract a man's attention but is not necessarily interested in him. Instead, the girl is fully aware of her attractiveness and is using it to her advantage. She warns the man not to fall in love with her because she is a heartbreaker and a risk-taker. She has a free soul, and she is not someone to settle down with. The line "Don't you cry when it's time for goodbye" indicates that the girl has no intention of staying in a relationship for an extended period.


The next verse introduces the idea that the girl is a bit notorious for breaking hearts. She has heard that someone wrote a song about her called "The Ballad of Jayme Dee." However, the girl defends herself by saying that she never meant to hurt anyone, and she was just having fun. She warns the man not to fall in love with her, hoping he won't be hurt when she leaves.


Interestingly, the chorus is in French with the phrase "Au revoir, C'est la vie" meaning "Goodbye, That's life." It is adding an exotic touch to the song, emphasizing the girl's free spirit, who moves from one encounter to another without attachments. In the bridge, the girl warns the man that he could quickly end up being the one who is "bruised." She does not have the patience to put him back together again.


Overall, "Heartbreaker" is a catchy pop song that is honest about what it is trying to portray: a girl who knows she's attractive, unwilling to settle down and break hearts in the process.
