[Verse 1]
I can't believe I could've been so blind
But love is strange
I thought about it for a long, long time
But the truth remains
I don't need another lonely night to dry my tears
The answer's plain as black and white
And I can see the picture very clear

[Chorus]
I've been livin' on the edge of a broken heart
I don't wanna fall, I don't wanna crawl
I've been livin' on the edge of a broken heart
Don't you wonder why I gotta say goodbye?

[Verse 2]
It isn't like you never had the chance
To change your tune
Did you think that I'm a dime a dance?
Well the dance is through

[Pre-Chorus]
I've been doin' things your way too long
But baby that's over
It won't be easy, but I've gotta be strong
And if I wanna cry I don't need your shoulder
[Chorus]
I've been livin' on the edge of a broken heart
I don't wanna fall, I don't wanna crawl
I've been livin' on the edge of a broken heart
Don't you wonder why I gotta say goodbye?

[Refrain]
I'll find someone else who's nothing like you
Two can play the game as well
And you're gonna be sorry, baby
When it's over!

[Guitar Solo]

[Pre-Chorus]
I've been doin' things your way too long
But baby that's over
It won't be easy but I've gotta be strong
And if I wanna cry I don't need your shoulder

[Chorus]
I've been livin' on the edge of a broken heart
I don't wanna fall, I don't wanna crawl
I've been livin' on the edge of a broken heart
Don't you wonder why I gotta say goodbye?
[Outro]
I've been livin' on the edge of a broken heart
I've been livin' on the edge of a broken heart, yeah, yeah, yeah
