A bleeding heart Will make a mess of things A falling star Will burn up everything I learned him and I burned him Even though he don't deserve it Too much passion, he's old-fashioned And the way he's got me actin' Out of control again I just can't be his friend A bleeding heart Will make a mess of things A falling star Will burn up everything When you dance to the beat Of a two-step tragedy A bleeding heart, my friend Is full of ecstasy When I met her, yeah, I let her Run my tall heart through the ringer Put a gold ring on her finger And now I'm dealing with feeling Out of control again I just can't be her friend A bleeding heart Will make a mess of things A falling star Will burn up everything When you pray, just believe In that broken rosary A bleeding heart, my friend Is full of ecstasy
