where do broken hearts go?




What a coincidence, as this week I found not one but two songs relating to broken hearts. The first was already posted with the video of Christina Perri's Jar of Hearts. And while browsing Rick Dees' Weekly Top 40, I found a list of hit songs with this one sung by Adele in it.

I heard that your settled down.
That you found a girl and your married now.
I heard that your dreams came true.
Guess she gave you things I didn't give to you.
Old friend why are you so shy?
It ain't like you to hold back or hide from the light.

Are there many people with broken hearts at this moment? Are there many weeping girls in their beds, lying next to a box of half-wet half-dried tissues? Are there many girls suffering from insomnia or nightmares, or both, because of broken hearts?

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited.
But I couldn't stay away I couldn't fight it.
I'd hoped you'd see my face,
And that you'd be reminded that for me it isn't over.

How did it happened? Were they aware of what was going on? Did they understand how things are going to change onwards? Were they ever ready?

Nevermind I'll find someone like you.
I wish nothing but the best for you too.
Don't forget me I beg
I remember you said:-
"Sometimes it lasts in love,
but sometimes it hurts instead"
Sometimes it lasts in love,
but sometimes it hurts instead yeah.

How do they feel? Were they faking their feelings in front of their friends? Did they always say "I'm OK, don't worry, I'll be fine"? Have they got over the feelings now? If they haven't what do they do?

You'd know how the time flies.
Only yesterday was the time of our lives.
We were born and raised in a summery haze.
Bound by the surprise of our glory days.

What do they do to get over it? Jump over a cliff? Tear up all the photos? Throw away all the things that bring back memories? Delete the guys from Facebook? Cut all connections with him?

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
But I couldn't stay away I couldn't fight it.
I'd hoped you'd see my face & that you'd be reminded
That for me it isn't over yet.

Am I a fool for still remembering him? Am I?

Nevermind I'll find someone like you.
I wish nothing but the best for you too.
Don't forget me I beg
I remember you said:-
"Sometimes it lasts in love,
but sometimes it hurts instead"

What went wrong? Were they too fast? Or was it too slow? Maybe both?

Nothing compares
no worries or cares.
Regret's and mistakes they're memories made.
Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste?

Is there anymore bright side of this world? Are there still hopes for the broken hearts?

Nevermind I'll find someone like you.
I wish nothing but the best for you too.
Don't forget me I beg,
I remembered you said:-
"Sometimes it lasts in love,
but sometimes it hurts instead"

Is he listening? Does the heart breakers realize that they broke all their promises? Do they even care?

Nevermind I'll find someone like you.
I wish nothing but the best for you too.
Don't forget me I beg,
I remembered you said:-
"Sometimes it lasts in love,
but sometimes it hurts instead"
Sometimes it lasts in love,
but sometimes it hurts instead

It hurts, but it's all I've got. I'll keep listening to these songs, and while listening to them, I'll think of all the bad memories only, because if I think of the good ones, I'll never be able to forget you.
