Hearts Get Broken All The Time (But The Problem Is, This Time It's Mine)

Luther Vandross

Ooh…
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

So many times I've seen
So many people's dreams
Lost and washed away
Out to the sea, yeah
I said "No, not I"
Pain would surely pass me by
Happening to them, but not to me, yeah

Hearts get broken all the time, ooh…(ooh)
Never used to worry bout things like this [I wouldn't worry]
But the trouble is [this time it's mine]
Now I'm worrying [this one is mine]
See the problem is the heart is mine [the heart is mine]

Hmm, love would be all I'd need
How naive could I be
Trusting other people with my care…yeah
Never thought I'd have to be
One of love's casualties
Up until now my belief was that love was fair, yeah, yeah

Hearts get broken all the time (ooh, yeah) ooh…
But I never worried 'bout things like this [I didn't worry]
But the trouble is [this time it's mine]
I keep worrying [this one is mine]
See the problem is the heart is mine [the heart is mine]
Oh, oh, ooh

This time my heart's breaking
This time my love is failing
(This time my love's failing)
I'm trying hard not to be bitter now (bitter now, bitter now)
I never dreamed that the broken heart would be mine
Ow

Hearts get broken all the time (oh, all the time) ooh…
(You think it's love, but it never really is)
Never could imagine a thing like that 
(A thing like that) [I wouldn't worry] (I wouldn't)
But the trouble is [this time it's mine]
Got me worrying [this one is mine]
See the problem is [the heart is mine]
(This is mine, this is mine, ay, yeah)

Hearts get broken all the time (oh…all the time, yeah, yeah) 
Ooh…(yeah, yeah, yeah)
Never cared a doggone thing about that
(Not a thing about that, and never worried it) 
[I didn't worry] (never)
But the trouble is [this time it's mine]
And the problem really is [this one is mine]
See the whole thing is the heart is [the heart is mine]
Yeah-eh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh, yeah

This time it's mine (it's mine, it's mine, it's mine, it's mine)
This one is mine (this one is mine, is mine, is mine)
The heart is mine (it's different now, yes, is it, yes, is it)

(It's mine, it's mine)
This time it's mine (it's mine, yo, it's mine, it's mine)
This one is mine 
(It's different, cause it's mine, it's mine, it's mine)
The heart is mine (this time it's mine, it's mine, it's mine)

This time it's mine
This one is mine
The heart is mine

This time it's mine
This one is mine
The heart is mine
