Born With a Broken Heart

"You cannot miss what don't exist
You cannot break a broken heart
I'd like to tell you my story
But there's no story to tell

'Til now my life has been boring
A list of fond farewells
I'm a ridiculous creature
I'm like a bird without wings

My heart's in permanent winter
Yours is forever spring
You're a truly lovely thing

But I was born with a broken heart, girl
I was born with a broken heart
I should have told you from the start, girl
I should have told you from the start
I was born with a broken heart

I look alright on the outside
I look like all of the rest
But there is always a downside
A secret to confess
I've tried so hard not to show it

I've tried so hard to be warm
But I can see that you sense it
When you are in my arms
I don't wanna see you harmed

I was born with a broken heart, girl
I was born with a broken heart
I should have told you from the start, girl
I should have told you from the start
I was born with a broken heart

You cannot miss what don't exist
You cannot break a broken heart

I was born with a broken heart
I should have told you from the start, girl
I should have told you from the start
But I was born with a broken heart"

The Divine Comedy
