I put on a record It was called “Sad Songs For Sullen Lovers” I listened to it once It took me all day to recover
I put on a record It was called “Sad Songs for Savage Lovers” Called you up, Told you what I thought And then I ran for cover
I put on a record Called “Dirty Songs For Sad Lovers” It wasn’t long before you called And said “Please, please come over And tell me Did your broken heart make you who you are?”
I put on a record It said “Love me once, then leave forever” We are so pure We can learn both joy and rage together
You took off the record And said “What’s your rush? As if things won’t break in their own time Without you there to push them
Forget about the record Forget about the song Let’s concentrate on what we got right And what we’re still doing wrong.”
Did your broken heart make you who you are?
You are capable of anything, aren’t you? You learned it from someone Someone learned it from you Cruelty is a virus I know, it’s in my blood too You think you know someone But you never know what they will do
Did your broken heart make you who you are? Can your broken heart tell me more about who you are? Then tell me all about it If your broken heart can tell me more about who you are Then go ahead, tell me all about it.
