Heartbreak Even — текст песни (Ani Difranco)

Its a heartbreak even situation

Nothing lost and nothing gained

So Im 10 years old again

Standing in the backyard waving at a train



I feel you make love to me slightly

Every time you let a little laugh slip too soon

And the moment passes over us so lightly

It feels like sand blowing over a dune



You try not to let your emotions show

But it aint a balloon you can just let go

Its an ice cream cone dripping in the sun

Sticky hands

Sticky arms

Sticky situation



Its a heartbreak even situation

One part powerful elation

One part pitiful and frail

And Im trying to feel my way around

A book of promises written in braille



There is pressure from within this

And pressure from above

There is pressure on our tenuous, strenuous love

And theres wet wool blankets one, two, three

Laid onto my chest

til I just cant breathe



And I try not to let my emotions show

But it aint a balloon I can just let go

Its an ice cream cone dripping in the sun

Sticky hands

Sticky arms

Sticky situation
