Down at the Bottom of a Broken Heart Lyrics by David Ball

Thinkin’ Problem

1994

[Verse 1]
I was sittin' on top of the world
Deep in love with a blue eyed girl
But the blue eyed girl told me goodbye
I fell like rain drops out of the sky
[Chorus]
Down at the bottom of a broken heart you will find her name Written there on a block of stone that once was a burning flame Now it's cold, lonely and dark
Way down at the bottom of a broken heart
[Verse 2]
Well, I took my love for my Sally Ann
And I buried it deeper than a China man
Where no one goes and no one can see
Well, there ain't nobody here but me
[Chorus]
Down at the bottom of a broken heart you will find her name Written there on a block of stone that once was a burning flame Now it's cold, lonely and dark
Way down at the bottom of a broken heart
[Bridge]
One day true love is gonna' set me free
But 'til then I'll be here deep in misery
[Chorus]
Down at the bottom of a broken heart you will find her name Written there on a block of stone that once was a burning flame Now it's cold, lonely and dark
Way down at the bottom of a broken heart
Yeah, it's cold, lonely and dark
Way down at the bottom of a lonely heart
