I can't believe I could have been so blind 
 But love is strange 
 I thought about it for a long long time 
 But the truth remains 
 I don't need another lonely night 
 To dry my tears 
 The answer's plain as black & white 
 And I can see the picture very clear 
    I've been living on the edge of a broken heart 
 I don't wanna fall, I don't wanna crawl 
 I've been living on the edge of a broken heart 
 Don't you wonder why I gotta say goodbye   
 It isn't like you never had the chance 
 To change your tune 
 Did you think that I'm a dime a dance 
 Well the dance is through 
 I've been doing things for way too long 
 But baby that's over (baby that's over) 
 It won't be easy but I gotta be strong 
 And if I wanna cry I don't need your shoulder   
 I've been living on the edge of a broken heart 
 I don't wanna fall, I don't wanna crawl 
 I've been living on the edge of a broken heart 
 Don't you wonder why I gotta say goodbye   
 I'll find someone else 
 Who's nothing like you 
 Two can play the game as well 
 And your gonna be sorry baby 
 When it's over   
 I've been doing things for way too long 
 But baby that's over (baby that's over) 
 It won't be easy but I gotta be strong 
 And if I wanna cry I don't need your shoulder   
 I've been living on the edge of a broken heart 
 I don't wanna fall, I don't wanna crawl 
 I've been living on the edge of a broken heart 
 Don't you wonder why I gotta say goodbye   
 I've been living on the edge of a broken heart 
 I've been living on the edge of a broken heart 
 Don't you wonder why I gotta say goodbye 
 I've been living on the edge of a broken heart
