Lyrics
[Verse]
Broken pieces
Scattered 'round
He's a tornado
Tearing through the town
I fell for his charm
Thought I could mend
But his love's a hurricane
Can't defend
[Verse 2]
He's the fire
I'm playing with matches
Thinking I can save him
Turn the scratches
But I'm just fooling myself
Living a lie
He's a master of destruction
Can't deny
[Chorus]
Shattered hearts
That's all he leaves behind
Thinking I can fix him
But I'm blind
Wishful thinking
A fantasy I chase
But he's the darkness
And I'm losing the race
[soft piano]
[Bridge]
But I am my father's daughter, so maybe I could fix him
I can fix him, no, really I can (no, really I can)
Whoa, maybe I can't
But I'll keep trying, 'cause I believe I can
[Verse 3]
In his eyes, I see the storm
A broken boy in a grown man's form
I thought I saw the light
But it's just a spark in the endless night
[Verse 4]
He's the poison
I keep drinking down
Hoping that this time
He won't let me drown
But I'm sinking, sinking
In the sea of his despair
Trying to hold on
But it's more than I can bear
[Chorus]
Shattered hearts
That's all he leaves behind
Thinking I can fix him
But I'm blind
he's the darkness
And I'm losing the race
[Outro]
I can fix him, no, really I can (no, really I can)
But the truth is harsh, I understand
Some wounds are too deep for my hands
Whoa, maybe I can't
He's a storm I can't control
A broken soul I can't console
And though I tried with all my might
Sometimes love just can't make it right
[hard piano and sax]
[Outro 2]
And now they all talk, they all whisper and frown
About how he breaks everyone around
They say I'm a fool, just another in line
Trying to save someone who destroys every time
[Outro 3]
But then I saw her, a light so bright
A woman strong, ready to fight
She took him down, freed me at last
From all the pain he held in the past
Now we’re together, in fields of green
Harvesting love, a new serene
She saved us both, from his dark embrace
Now we’re happy, in a peaceful place
Hope renewed, in the morning sun
Two hearts mended, as we run
Through the fields, hand in hand
Love reborn, in this gentle land
[hard piano and sax instrumental with noisy drums]
Now we’re happy, in a peaceful place
Hope renewed, in the morning sun
Two hearts mended, as we run
Through the fields, hand in hand
Love reborn, in this gentle land
