Broken Keys

Lyrics

[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
