HEARTBREAKER, YOU GOT THE BEST OF ME / BUT I JUST KEEP ON COMING BACK INCESSANTLY/ OH, WHY DID YOU HAVE TO RUN YOUR GAME ON ME? / I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN RIGHT FROM THE START YOU'D / GO AND BREAK MY HEART /

YOU TAKE THE GRAY SKIES OUT OF MY WAY / YOU MAKE THE SUN SHINE BRIGHTER THAN DORIS DAY / YOU TURNED A BRIGHT SPARK INTO A FLAME / MY BEATS PER MINUTE NEVER BEEN THE SAME / 'CAUSE YOU'RE MY LADY, I'M YOUR FOOL / IT MAKES ME CRAZY WHEN YOU ACT SO CRUEL / COME ON, BABY, LET'S NOT FIGHT / WE'LL GO DANCING, EVERYTHING WILL BE ALRIGHT /
