I got a call on the telephone
She said I'm giving back your ring
I just didn't know all the heartbreak
That this love affair would bring

I hang my head and tears began to fall
I can't believe I lost her love
And now this tale of the broken hearted
Is all that I think of

(Chorus)
I could tell her tears were flowing
For a love destined not to be
And I could tell that it hurt her
To call and set me free
We're just two broken hearted lovers
Not knowing which way we should turn
And this tale of the broken hearted
A fire that will always burn

(Musical Break)

She mailed my picture and my diamond
                    ring
She didn't want them lying round
And I tried to keep it secret
But it soon spread over our whole hometown

Well I saw her on the street in town
She wouldn't even look my way
It seems this tale of the broken hearted
Still lives on in us today

(Chorus)
I could tell her tears were flowing
For a love destined not to be
And I could tell that it hurt her
To call and set me free
We're just two broken hearted lovers
Not knowing which way we should turn
And this tale of the broken hearted
A fire that will always burn

And this tale of the broken hearted
A fire that will always burn
