Broken Things

Lucy Kaplansky

You can have my heart

It isn't new

It's been used and broken

And only comes in blue



It's been down a long road

It got dirty on the way

If I give it to you will you make it clean

And wash the shame away



You can have my heart

If you don't mind broken things

You can have my life

If you don't mind these tears

I heard that you make old things new

So I give these pieces all to you

If you want it, you can have my heart



So beyond repair

Nothing I could do

Tried to fix it myself, but it was only worse

When I got through



Then you walk right into my darkness

And you speak words so sweet

And you hold me like a child till my frozen tears

Fall down at your feet



You can have my heart

If you don't mind broken things

You can have my life

If you don't mind these tears

I heard that you make old things new

So I give these pieces all to you

If you want it, you can have my heart
