The Divine Comedy – Born With A Broken Heart

You cannot miss what don?t exist
You cannot break a broken heart

I?d like to tell you my story
But there?s no story to tell

?Til now my life has been boring
A list of fond farewells
I?m a ridiculous creature
I?m like a bird without wings
My heart?s in permanent winter
Yours is forever spring
You?re a truly lovely thing

But I was born with a broken heart, girl
I was born with a broken heart
I should have told you from the start, girl
I should have told you from the start
I was born with a broken heart

I look alright on the outside
I look like all of the rest
But there is always a downside
A secret to confess
I?ve tried so hard not to show it
I?ve tried so hard to be warm
But I can see that you sense it
When you are in my arms
I don?t wanna see you harmed

I was born with a broken heart, girl
I was born with a broken heart
I should have told you from the start, girl
I should have told you from the start
I was born with a broken heart

You cannot miss what don?t exist
You cannot break a broken heart

I was born with a broken heart
I should have told you from the start, girl
I should have told you from the start
But I was born with a broken heart
