            Song Lyrics 
            
 
 
 
 
 They used to say that boys are tough as nails 
In every way he keeps his heart as guarded as a jail 
Now things have changed, I feel so old 
Like any girl could drag my heart across the coals 
I was always there in the thick of things 
I always had the heart of every woman on a string 
The danger zone shone from my eyes 
It seemed like every inch I gained became a mile 
It's not the night reaching in and touching me 
It's just that breaking hearts ain't what it used to be 
It seems that time has killed that cruel streak in me 
And breaking hearts ain't what it used to be 
It's not the light shining in and catching me 
It's just that breaking hearts ain't what it used to be 
But time has come and cast a spell on me 
And breaking hearts ain't what it used to be 
And now I know what lonely means 
I used to give so little and gain everything 
The darkest part of every day 
Is the shadow of another girl as she turns and walks away 
Can't say I blame them all for being hurt 
After all I treated each and every one like dirt 
Who wants a heart that's never home 
I face the facts and lock myself into a life alone
