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 broke me
Now I can't (1)________ anything
When I (2)________ you and so untrue
I can't (3)________ convince myself
When I'm speaking
It's the voice of someone 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 (4)________ on broken strings
You can't (5)________ anything
That your heart don't want to feel
I can't tell you (6)__________________ that ain't real
Oh the truth hurts
And (7)________ worse
How can I give anymore
When I (8)________ you a (9)____________ less (10)________ before?
Oh, (11)________ are we doing?
We are turning (12)________ dust
Playing house in the (13)__________ of us
Running (14)________ through the fire
When there's (15)______________ (16)________ to save
It's like chasing the very last train
When it's too (17)________ (too late)
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 play on broken strings
You can't (18)________ anything
That your heart don't want to feel
I can't tell you something (19)________ ain't real
Oh, the truth hurts
And lies worse
How can I (20)________ anymore
When I love you a little less than before?
But we're running through the fire
When there's (21)______________ left to save
It's like chasing the very last train
When we both (22)________ it's too (23)________ (too late)
You can't play on broken strings
You can't (24)________ anything
That your heart don't want to feel
I can't (25)________ you something that ain't real
Oh, the truth hurts
And lies worse
So how can I give anymore
When I (26)________ you a little less than before?
Oh, you know that I (27)________ you a little (28)________ than before
Let me hold you for the last time
It's the last chance to feel again
For the last time
It's the last chance to feel again
But you broke me
Now I can't (1)________ anything
When I (2)________ you and so untrue
I can't (3)________ convince myself
When I'm speaking
