I felt you slip from the covers of our big four poster bed
I heard you dial the telephone
Saw you shake your worried head
I watched you dress in total darkness
You've never done that before
Daylight seemed so far away as you gently closed the door

I saw the light beneath the door as you tiptoed to the car
Heard you leave so gently
Oh, you surely won't go far
I stayed awake and watch the day break
Then I waited through the day
Oh, you'll be back
I know you will
You've never stayed away

Or have I just heard a heart break
What was that awful sound
Does it seem like crashing thunder
Or just a teardrop fallin' down

When it happens
Can you hear it or just feel it deep inside
I think I just heard a heart break
And I'm so afraid it's mine
I think I just heard a heart break
And I'm so afraid it's mine
