Broken Keys

[Verse 1: Ed Harcourt]

Broken keys

They don't mean much to me

If you're not around

To put them back together

Ah, broken keys

Maybe I'll just let them be

Perhaps they make a better sound

When they're all stuck together

[Pre-Chorus: Ed Harcourt]

I said, "Please, please, baby

Soothe these callous fingers

My soul has not surrendered

Since you burned my heart to cinders"

Let the band play on in sheer cacophony

[Chorus: Ed Harcourt & Greg Dulli]

So won't you fix mе up?

I'm a little bit stuck

I think we sufferеd enough

From all these maddening times

So won't you fix me up?

I'm a little bit stuck

Thank God you've got enough love

To stop us losing our minds

[Verse 2: Greg Dulli]

Broken keys

They dissonate so perfectly

I'll wash these bloody hands

That have been hammering forever

[Pre-Chorus: Greg Dulli]

I said, "Please, please, baby

Pull out all the splinters

I'm a-lyin' in the winter

Since you've burned my heart to cinders"

And the band play on in sheer cacophony

[Chorus: Ed Harcourt & Greg Dulli]

So won't you fix me up?

I'm a little bit stuck

I think we suffered enough

From all these maddening times

So won't you fix me up?

I'm a little bit stuck

Thank God you've got enough love

To stop us losing our minds

[Bridge: Ed Harcourt, Greg Dulli]

Losing our minds

Losing our minds

Losing our minds

Losing our minds

Losing our minds

Losing our minds

[Chorus: Ed Harcourt & Greg Dulli]

So won't you fix me up?

I'm a little bit stuck

I think we suffered enough

From all these maddening times

So won't you fix me up?

I'm a little bit stuck

Thank God you've got enough love

To stop us losing our minds
