Randy Travis Lyrics
“My Heart Cracked (But It Did Not Break)”
About the way you brushed me off and put me down
Well, I’m here to say, make no mistake
My heart cracked, but it did not break.
I can’t deny, the hurt was deep
The way you slammed that door
And walked right out on me
But I’m telling you, get one thing straight
My heart cracked, but it did not break.
Shatterd dreams, lay everywhere
Broken promises, are all we share
I finally took, all I could take
My heart cacked, but it did not break.
[Instrumental]
Well I was blue, but not for long
‘Cause this brand new love
I got has made me strong
And I’m over you, and all the ache
My heart cracked, but it did not break.
Shattered dreams, lay everywhere
Broken promises, are all we share
I finally took, all I could take
My heart cracked, but it did not break.
My heart cracked, but it did not break…
