Probably Just a Broken Heart Songtext

von David Munyon

There's this old man waiting at the station
Old brown shoes tell you he's seen some road
On a bench there with no destination
Life's been fun and life's been cold
He is there to see the traveling faces
Cause his photographs got torn apart
Someone said he still roams this country
Probably from a broken heart
Probably just a broken heart

Jean and Doug fell in love in Niagara
Then their love simply falls apart
Their old car leaks in five locations
Love is sad and love is art
Douglas leaves for Mom and Daddys
Thirtyone and a tent in the yard
Blames it all on Jeans Flirtations
Probably from a broken heart
Probably just a broken heart

In the night she lights another Pall Mall
Her lighter lights a lonely room
She recalls the way the aviators
Used to dance and try and reach the moon
Her thin hands caress the flag they gave her
While the dealers shoot it out back and forth
She sadly whispers... America's bleeding
Probably from a broken heart
Probably just a broken heart

I recall the recent frozen winter
And the way the hi-fi sthe walls
My mind vacationed in Jamaica
Dreams are lost and dreams are joy
I watch TV like I was addicted
Have no money for the QVC tarts
When I died I asked them please print clearly
Probably from a broken heart
Probably just a broken heart
