you done tore out my heart and stomped that sucker flat!
First, DubDub, I don't think these words are original to tsuwm--they are the exemplification of why I can't stand country music.

Second, I THINK the line, "What makes the world go 'round?" is there because of the answer to the question. That is, love is what makes our hearts feel whole or broken.

Dr. Bill, that was sound advice indeed--thank you. And I most definitely think of you as a friend.

Why DO we say our heart is broken? I seem to recall reading somewhere ages ago, that different cultures have different sayings for this phenomenon. Possibly one of them involved the stomach. Max and wow, got any Maori or Hawaiian for us? Wsieber, how about where you live, and Bingley, when you get back, what do they say in Indonesia?Emanuela, what do you-all say in Italy when you lose someone you love (about how you feel, I mean--not what sorts of names to call him! )?
