Lyrics
Verse:
I’ll bring you your coffee; bring it right to your bed.
I’ll wipe away that teardrop; leave a kiss on your head.
And I’ll know your wondering, why I can’t get it right.
Chorus: And It breaks my heart to know it’s me, every time you cry.
Verse:
It was four in the morning, when I walked through that door.
I’d been out drinkin’ whiskey. Seems always time for one more.
Yeah, I know you told me, that we’re just getting by,
Chorus: And It breaks my heart to know it’s me, every time you cry.
Bridge:
‘Cause every time you cry, I hear you whisper my name.
A little warmth on your pillow; could’ve spared me my shame.
And I know you love me. Lord I can’t tell you why.
I’m a failed heart in anguish, (baby) every time, every time you cry.
Verse:
It ain’t no other woman, keeps me warm in the night.
And spirits they don’t addict me, I am seduced by the high.
When I need to prove freedom, I sometimes lose my mind.
Chorus: And it breaks my heart to know it’s me every time you cry.
Verse:
So I’ll bring you your coffee, and I’ll lay by your side.
As you choke down that offering, I’ll be swallowing my pride.
As I search for forgiveness, hidden deep in your eyes,
Chorus:
It’ll break my heart to know it’s me
Always breaks my heart to know it’s me
Lord it breaks my heart to know it’s me
Every time you cry
