Broken hearts and torn up letters
Girl you just can't dance forever
If you want to make it better

Her hands are in her pockets
And she's scared to look
The picture's frozen
And she's closed the book

Jealousy has only got one friend
And Joey's heart was never meant to mend
Walking faster now she holds him close
The timing matters just to take the dose

Empty pockets tell the stories

And there's no destiny when everyone's your enemy
Take your jealous heart and cast it into stone
You'll regret it all
Living behind your wall
And you'll never fall in love
If you don't fall in love

Broken hearts and torn up letters
Girl you just can't dance forever
If you want to make it better

The nights are getting darker
And the wind is cold
The summer sun
Has now become so old

Her closest friends
Were never meant to fade
With all these dreams
That didn't make the grade

Close the doors but never look inside
Time will tell if all your love has died
Empty pockets tell the stories

And there's no destiny when everyone's your enemy
Take your jealous heart and cast it into stone
You'll regret it all
Living behind your wall
And you'll never fall in love
If you don't risk it all

Broken hearts and torn up letters
Girl you just can't dance forever
If you want to make it better
Whoa

Broken hearts and torn up letters
Girl you just can't dance forever
If you want to make it better
Times like these won't last forever

Close the doors but never look inside
Time will tell if all your love has died
Empty pockets tell the stories

And there's no destiny when everyone's your enemy
Take your jealous heart and cast it into stone
You'll regret it all
Living behind your wall
And you'll never fall in love
If you don't fall in love

You'll regret it all
(Broken hearts and torn up letters)
Living behind your wall
(Girl you just can't dance forever)
And you'll never fall in love if you don't risk it all
(If you want to make it better)

Broken hearts and torn up letters
Girl you just can't dance forever
If you want to make it better
Times like these won't last forever
