Heartbreak Even Lyrics by Ani Difranco

Heartbreak Even Lyrics

    It's a heartbreak even situation
    Nothing lost and nothing gained
    So i'm 10 years old again
    Standing in the backyard waving at a train

    I feel you make love to me slightly
    Every time you let a little laugh slip too soon
    And the moment passes over us so lightly
    It feels like sand blowing over a dune

    You try not to let your emotions show
    But it ain't a balloon you can just let go
    It's an ice cream cone dripping in the sun
    Sticky hands
    Sticky arms
    Sticky situation

    It's a heartbreak even situation
    One part powerful elation
    One part pitiful and frail
    And i'm trying to feel my way around
    A book of promises written in braille

    There is pressure from within this
    And pressure from above
    There is pressure on our tenuous, strenuous love
    And there's wet wool blankets one, two, three
    Laid onto my chest
    'til i just can't breathe

    And i try not to let my emotions show
    But it ain't a balloon i can just let go
    It's an ice cream cone dripping in the sun
    Sticky hands
    Sticky arms
    Sticky situation
