Sweet And Broken lyrics
Song information
Artist: Blues Traveler Album: Truth Be Told
Lyrics
She smokes my last cigarette She forgives me but I don't know it yet And I don't ask but sometimes why is beautiful
She's a little cheap but worth the wait Of honeyed kisses sleeping late They steal my covers but I'm just glad my bed is full
And if the words were spoken They'd shatter on the floor And once they'd broken open Would it matter any more You've got to love her to see her And in seeing there is hoping Oh she's so sweet She's sweet and broken
She'll never tell you anything She's the fire that darkness brings And I get lost but that's just where I'm supposed to be
She won't say why she cries At marigolds and butterflies Or why her smile seems to hide a tragedy
And if the words were spoken They'd shatter on the floor And once they'd broken open Would it matter any more You've got to love her to see her And in seeing there is hoping Oh she's so sweet She's sweet and broken
I see her rising through the trees She's like a wounded moon Gazing back at me
And if the words were spoken They'd shatter on the floor And if the words were spoken They'd shatter on the floor And once they'd broken open Would it matter any more You've got to love her to see her And in seeing there is hoping Oh she's so sweet She's sweet and broken And if the words were spoken They'd shatter on the floor And once they'd broken open Would it matter any more You've got to love her to see her And in seeing there is hoping Oh she's so sweet She's sweet and broken You've got to love her to see her And in seeing there is hoping Oh she's so sweet And broken
