Broken Strings by James Morrison & Nelly Furtado
Let me hold you
For the last time
It's the last chance to feel again
But you (1)__________ me
Now I can't (2)________ anything
When I (3)________ you and so untrue
I can't even convince myself
When I'm speaking
It's the (4)__________ of (5)______________ else
Oh... it tears me up
I try to hold on but it hurts too much
I try to forgive but it's not enough
To make it all okay
You can't (6)________ on broken strings
You can't feel anything
That your (7)__________ don't want to feel
I can't (8)________ you (9)__________________ that ain't real
Oh the truth hurts
And (10)________ worse
How can I give anymore
When I love you a little (11)________ than before?
Oh, (12)________ are we doing?
We are (13)______________ into dust
Playing house in the ruins of us
Running back through the fire
When there's nothing left to save
It's like (14)______________ the (15)________ last train
When it's too late (too late)
Oh... it tears me up
I try to (16)________ on but it (17)__________ too much
I try to forgive but it's not enough
To make it all okay
You can't play on broken strings
You can't feel anything
That your heart don't want to feel
I can't (18)________ you something that ain't real
Oh, the truth hurts
And lies worse
How can I give anymore
When I love you a little less than before?
But we're running through the fire
When there's nothing left to save
It's like chasing the very last train
When we (19)________ know it's too late (too late)
You can't play on broken strings
You can't feel anything
That your heart don't want to feel
I can't tell you (20)__________________ that ain't real
Oh, the truth hurts
And (21)________ worse
So how can I give anymore
When I (22)________ you a little (23)________ than before?
Oh, you know (24)________ I love you a little less than before
Let me hold you for the last time
It's the (25)________ chance to feel again
For the last time
It's the last chance to feel again
But you (1)__________ me
Now I can't (2)________ anything
When I (3)________ you and so untrue
I can't even convince myself
When I'm speaking
