Can a Heart Take Songtext
von Warren Zeiders

Gold is a night, lonely lullaby
No mockingbird gonna sing
Her goodbye cut like a knife
Won′t be no diamond ring
On a pretty left hand
I better understand

How much pain can a heart take?
How long 'til the hurt fades?
How much whiskey does a man drink
′Til the "you ain't here" is gone?
How dark is a storm cloud?
How hard is it come down?
How much rain 'til the dam breaks?
How much pain can a heart take?

On my head, hold it all back
Keep it in, cowboys don′t cry (don′t cry)
Settle on up, go and get stuck
Ride until the morning light


How much pain can a heart take?
How long 'til the hurt fades?
How much whiskey does a man drink
′Til the "you ain't here" is gone?
How dark is a storm cloud?
How hard is the come down?
How much rain ′til the dam breaks?
How much pain can a heart take?

Can it take what you've given me?
Can it take all these memories?
Can it take all I′m feeling now?
Well, I figure I'ma figure out

How much pain can a heart take? (Heart take)
How long 'til the hurt fades?
How much whiskey does a man drink
′Til the "you ain′t here" is gone?
How dark is a storm cloud?
How hard is the come down?
How much rain 'til the dam breaks?
How much pain can a heart take?

Uh, uh
