Lyrics

(You've broken my heart)

Boy, you tell me we'll never part
Hold you from the very start
Now I've got to get this guy out of my head
Before I lose control

You were the only man to be my love, be my love
Now it's ancient, you know that you cut me like a knife

You've broken my heart, broken my heart
This can't be right, no no not right
I'm telling you I know it's true
That I'd die for you, die for you
Baby, broke my heart

(Oh no no)

Baby you were everything (everything)
Now you say it's over
I know that you won't be coming back

You've broken my heart
Torn me apart
It can't be right
Baby I would fly to see
Even in you, even in you
Broken my heart, broken my heart
Right from the start, yeah from the start
I just can't believe it's true
You threw me away, threw me away
Baby broke my heart

NAOKI

This HYPER EUROBEAT song is brimming with the expression of being driven crazy from the sadness of a broken heart.
The lyrics to this song are linked to that of CAN'T STOP FALLIN' IN LOVE, so I hope people will take interest in finding the connections between these two.
And the conclusion to this story can be found in the lyrics of LOVE AGAIN TONIGHT from DDR4th MIX and ParaParaParadise.
This is the second song in my NAOKI Euro music series.

DanceDanceRevolution

This standard Euro number features the Australian-born female vocalist Paula Terry. The pleasant tempo, accompanied by the mellow singing voice and catchy melody, results in a song that's great to listen and dance to. The highlight is the chorus, which begins with the phrase "You broken my heart". The heartbreaking melody should unconsciously move you. If you can express your melancholic feelings with its emotional steps, perhaps you can say you're an expert D.D.R. player?

Dance Maniax

NAOKI MAEDA

Broken my heart follows Can't stop fallin' in love, from D.D.R. Solo2000, as the second song in my second NAOKI Eurogroove music series, which features the Australian-born female vocalist Paula Terry in all its songs. Broken my heart serves as a bridge linking the story in the lyrics to Love again tonight from D.D.R. 4thMIX.

Liner Notes

ParaPara freaks can't get enough of this song, which is considered to be a royal Eurobeat song. The passionate singing voice of the main female vocalist will naturally lift your heart. Even though it remains up-tempo from beginning to end, the finely detailed melody cuts somewhere into your feelings. The chorus phrase in "BROKEN MY HEART" should unconsciously move people. It'd be extremely cool if female players decide to dance to this song's exceptional groove.

Following "CAN'T STOP FALLIN' IN LOVE" is "Broken My Heart".
But the end of the story is "LOVE AGAIN TONIGHT"...
I see~... I get it~... I'm impressed.
But I actually pondered towards myself, reminiscing about the experiences which ended at this "Broken My Heart".
It's a maddening, tragic feeling when you have a broken heart, using the "power of speed" to shred that feeling.
Maybe it's just a temporary escape, but I wanted to completely replace this feeling with a sense of speed.
I understand... but this is something you should never do (maybe it's a good idea to sprint on a running course or schoolyard instead). Music and video games are not only for fun, but can also act as a "replacement" for that. I'm sure...
