Ain't It Heartbreaking

Hey, 4 AM, here we go again

Just you, me, the birds, and the rain

I'm thankful for the company

These early morning hours are so lonely

The sun is still too tired to say hello

The raindrops sound like static on the radio

In your quiet world of slumber, I'm not welcome

These thoughts are beating in my head like a drum

A drum

I've thrown all my pennies in the fountain

I can tell you hoping for something don't make it true

Hope is just a trick your mind keeps playing

To ease your pain between rounds of heart-breaking

Ain't it heart-breaking?

Why do I insist on playing the fool?

I turn my head from what I know is true

By now you'd think that I'd be smarter

Than to throw my hard-earned money in the water

I've thrown all my pennies in the fountain

So I can tell you hoping for something don't make it true

Hope is just a trick your mind keeps playing

To ease your pain between rounds of heart-breaking

Ain't it heart-breaking?

From now on, I'll save my pennies in a jar

Ain't no wish that's gonna mend this broken heart

I've thrown all my pennies in the fountain

And I can tell you hoping for something don't make it true

Hope is just a trick your mind keeps playing

To ease your pain between rounds of heart-breaking

Ain't it heart-breaking?
