Love's on trial
Unpack my bags for awhile
You know it's the third time
Your cheatin' eyes
While the baby cries
Till death do us part
Puts a pain in my heart
We can't live by those lies
If we could get priorities down
You'd back me up, not back me down
Broken-hearted bound (broken-hearted)
When you're the first to take me down
I'm broken-hearted bound
Still you're the last to come around
I could never understand
What you need from a man
I'm hearin' the same old line
The first to criticize
The last to compromise
When you have your say
You just turn and walk away
I take it each day
If we could get priorities down
You'd back me up, not back me down
If we could face reality
Then, girl, you just have to let me be
Broken-hearted bound (broken-hearted)
When you're the first to take me down
I'm broken-hearted bound (broken-hearted)
Still you're the last to come around
Broken-hearted bound (broken-hearted)
When you're the first to put me down
I'm broken-hearted bound (broken-hearted)
Still you're the last to come around
Broken-hearted bound
(Broken-hearted, broken-hearted bound)
Since you put me down
I'm broken-hearted bound
(Broken-hearted, broken-hearted bound)
Every day, every night
(Broken-hearted, broken-hearted bound)
Sometimes I can't sleep at night
(Broken-hearted, broken-hearted bound)
(Broken-hearted, broken-hearted bound)
