Lyrics:

(Carlene Carter - Nick Lowe - Paul Carrack)

Don't give my heart a break
Don't give it an ache for heavens sake
I'm on my knees now pretty please
Don't give my heart a break

Don't give my heart a break
Don't put the pressure on me precious
Take about as much as it can take
Don't give my heart a break oh - oh

Well I thought this heart has beaten love for sure
It's never missed this many beats before
This heart can't get arrested any more
Cause I feel it starting to crack
It's under attack

Don't give my heart a break
Don't give it a shake - for heaven's sake
I'm on my knees now pretty please
Don't give my heart a break

Don't give my heart a break
How I wish that it would let up - i'd be set up
If I had a pound for every pound
I'd buy my heart a break
Can I buy my heart a break wo - wo

Don't give my heart a break
Isn't it a shame, isn't it a crime
Can I buy my heart a little more time
Some time cause

I thought this heart had beaten love for sure
But it never missed this many beats before
This heart can't get arrested any more
Cause I feel it atarting to crack
It's under attack
