Intro
(3x) ]
After all these years tryin to set it free
The pain seems to fade but it never leaves
The memories haunt me and I wish theyd let me be. Yeah!
I gambled on love
and it tore me apart
Be still, be still, be still,
My broken heart
Be still my heart!
I wasnt born wise but I learned this much
Though you took all I gave it was never enough
There was a time Id have died for your soul, your strength, your touch
But Ill leave it behind,
try to make a new start
Be still, be still, be still,
My broken heart
Let the pain fade away!
It was the heat of the moment in the heart of a dream
You lit fire to my soul and you said youd never leave
Its tearin me up, baby, where have you been?
Oh, please, oh please, oh please!
please just understand me
And what this nonsense means. oh, yeah!
Solo

Let the pain fade away!
I gave up my dreams to let you inside
Boy, you sure took my momma;s little boy for a ride
Ill never know how I coulda ben so blind
I gambled on love
and it tore me apart
Be still, be still, be still,
My broken heart
Be still, be still, be still,
My broken heart
Be still my heart!
My broken heart
Let the pain fade away!

Drivin me down and down and down and down
