James Morrison & Nelly Furtado - Broken Strings



='(


Let me hold you
For the last time
It’s the last chance to feel again
But you broke me
Now I can’t feel anything

When I love you
It’s so untrue
I can’t even convince myself
When I’m speaking
It’s the voice of someone else

It tears me up
I tried to hold but it hurts too much
I tried to forgive but it’s not enough
To make it all okay

You can’t play our broken strings
You can’t feel anything
That your heart don’t want to feel
I can’t tell you something that ain’t real

The truth hurts
And lies worse
I can’t like it anymore
And I love you a little less than before

What are we doing?
We are turning into dust
Playing house in the ruins of us

Running back through the fire
When there’s nothing left to say
It’s like chasing the very last train
When it’s too late

But we’re running through the fire
When there’s nothing left to say
It’s like chasing the very last train
When we both know it’s too late
