Ohh it's choking me to death   I can hardly catch my breath   It happens when I think of you   And I think, it always will      Every day that passes by   It's just one more way to die   Lord knows I'd be gone now on   If a broken heart, could kill      Why didn't you just take a gun   And shoot me where I stood?   And put an end to this misery   For good      But you know, I'm still alive   And somehow I will survive   But Lord knows I'd be cold and still   If a broken heart could kill      Why didn't you just take a gun   And shoot me where I stood?   Lord knows if I had the nerve enough   I would      But you know, I'm still alive   And somehow I will survive   But Lord knows I'd be cold and still   If a broken heart could kill
