Love Ain't What Broke Your Heart
Unveiling the True Cause of Heartbreak
Lyrics
The bigger the heart, the harder the fall
The larger the capacity for love in a person, the more difficult the emotional impact of a romantic disappointment.
The harder the fall, the higher the walls
The more intense the emotional letdown, the stronger the emotional defenses that are built to protect oneself.
Heartbreak left you in the dark
Heartbreak has left you feeling lost or without direction.
The cracks let light shine through to you heart
Despite the emotional wounds, there are openings (cracks) that allow light, or hope, to reach your heart.
Cause love ain't what broke your heart
Love itself is not the cause of the heartbreak.
Love ain't what broke your heart
Reiteration that love is not responsible for the pain experienced.
(Love ain't what broke your heart)
Continued emphasis on the idea that love is not the culprit.
Love gave you tears for your eyes
Love results in tears, but it's not the sole reason for the emotional distress.
But it's not the thing that made them cry
Love isn't the direct cause of the tears shed.
Hearts fight battles of their own design
Hearts engage in internal struggles that they themselves create.
The scars fade where you let the hope inside
Scars from emotional battles begin to heal where hope is allowed to enter.
Love ain't what broke your heart
Reiteration that love is not the source of the heartbreak.
(Love ain't what broke your heart)
Emphasizes again that love is not responsible for the heartbreak.
Love ain't what broke your heart
Restates that love is not the cause of the broken heart.
(Love ain't what broke your heart)
Continued emphasis on the idea that love is not to blame for the heartbreak.
Love ain't what broke your heart
Love is reaffirmed as not being the cause of the broken heart.
(Love ain't what broke your heart)
Reiterates that love is not responsible for the heartbreak.
Love ain't what broke your heart
Continued emphasis on the idea that love is not to blame for the heartbreak.
(Love ain't what broke your heart)
Repeated affirmation that love is not the cause of the broken heart.
