Think It Over (Before You Break My Heart) - Brenda Holloway

Now you’re walking out on me

You’ve really made up your mind

You’re heading straight for the door

Of the girl who has broken your heart many times before

Maybe, baby, you should wait

At least just another day

Before you rush off to her arms

And break my heart this way

Baby, before you break my heart, reconsider

You’re tearing me apart, reconsider

Before you break my heart, reconsider

You’re tearing me apart, reconsider

With each step you’re takin', remember all the time

That you’ll be breakin', breakin', breakin', breakin'

This poor heart of mine

I believed your promises that you would never make me cry

But every single time she begged for a call, you were telling me goodbye

Baby, baby, I can’t make it, can’t take it with a smile

So don’t break my heart so suddenly, think it over a little while

Baby, before you break my heart, reconsider

You’re tearing me apart, reconsider

Before you break my heart, reconsider

You’re tearing me apart, reconsider

Each time you take her in your arms, remember all the time

You’ll be breakin', breakin', breakin', breakin'

This poor heart of mine, yeah

With each step you’re takin', remember all the time

That you’ll be breakin', breakin', breakin', breakin'

This poor heart of mine, yeah

Reconsider, baby, about me

Girl leave, what am I supposed to do?

Wait another day, wait another day

Don’t leave me, baby, wait another day
