A song by James Ingram. Imagine the scenario as you read. I held her close to me 'Cause I know she breaks so easily And then I told her But I knew no matter how I tried to console her She'd just do the best she could But there are times the best is no damn good And no matter how you try to be kind There's always still a part of you you leave behind When it falls apart There's no easy way to break somebody's heart I lied and told her she'd be fine Though we both knew it was just a line I had to do it 'Cause I'd a' said anything to help me get through it Then she reached out for my hand And her simple touch was more than I could stand And I had to turn away 'Cause I knew all the hurt That she was feeling I was feeling too 'Cause when it falls apart There's no easy way to break somebody's heart She could've gotten angry And made me feel like a guilty child But I realized that never was her style I wanted her to hurt me And not treat me like a friend I wanted her to say there'd be someday I'd come crawling on my knees to ask her back again But she acted like a lady 'til the end Oh, what a lady I thought that she'd break down But she smiled at me and never made a sound And I guess she understood in her way 'Cause her silence told me everything she could not say When it falls apart There's no easy way to break somebody's heart. Girl’s POV: Fragile. So fragile. All those words unspoken. Gestured in a simple touch. A touch meant to let him know she’d like him to stay. Tears and love suppressed. Suppressed to show a kind smile. She could’ve have gotten angry. But it is never her style to do that. Sometimes, it pays so much to be a lady. A kind one. “I thought that she’d break down ( oh only if you knew, she would’ve to) “ But she smiled to me and never made a sound And I guess she understood in her way Cause her silence told me everything she could not say” And so I say it right here. When I know you would not have any chance to read it anyway. Right now, it would have been nice if you are there as I cry. I guess I miss you after all. There is no easy way at all.
