Heard a key in the door Boots on the floor Flip of the kitchen light Then he zipped up his coat Cleared his throat That's when he said goodbye The saddest song I can't forget And now it's stuck in my head That's the sound of a heartbreak, hits you like a hard rain Screamin' like a freight train comin' down the tracks Quiet as a teardrop fallin' 'cause he still ain't callin' So you pour more whiskey in your glass I can't turn it down, it's so quiet that it's loud That's the sound of a heartbreak Feels like it shattered Like nothin' mattered Like it'll never be the same You start to let go But then it echoes Every time you hear his name That's the sound of a heartbreak, hits you like a hard rain Screamin' like a freight train comin' down the tracks Quiet as a teardrop fallin' 'cause he still ain't callin' So you pour more whiskey in your glass I can't turn it down, it's so quiet that it's loud That's the sound of a heartbreak Ooh, that's the sound, yeah Mm It's beatin' like a drum, ringin' in my ear The minute he was gone, all that I could hear Was the sound of a heartbreak The sound of a heartbreak That's the sound of a heartbreak, hits you like a hard rain Screamin' like a freight train comin' down the tracks Quiet as a teardrop fallin' 'cause he still ain't callin' So you pour more whiskey in your glass I can't turn it down, it's so quiet that it's loud I can't turn it down, it's so quiet that it's loud That's the sound of a heartbreak Mhm
