Broken Bones Lyrics
Standing on one foot
well I could fall into the grave
Holding onto you
I stand on two
Walking through this town
Well I could drift into the night
Walking here with you
I shine a light
Drinking here alone
Is not so pretty for a girl
Drinking here with you
Makes me a pearl
Everyday is lost if not with you
Send me home, I'm tired and blue
Broken bones may hurt
But a broken heart will never mend
Swimming out to sea
Well I could wash up on the shore
Swimming out to you, I say no more
Praying for a time when I can sing my lullaby
Now I pray that you're my holy night
Everyday is lost if not with you
Send me home I'm tired and blue
Broken bones may hurt
But a broken heart will.....
Broken bones may hurt
But a broken heart will
Never mend
well I could fall into the grave
Holding onto you
I stand on two
Well I could drift into the night
Walking here with you
I shine a light
Is not so pretty for a girl
Drinking here with you
Makes me a pearl
Send me home, I'm tired and blue
Broken bones may hurt
But a broken heart will never mend
Well I could wash up on the shore
Swimming out to you, I say no more
Praying for a time when I can sing my lullaby
Now I pray that you're my holy night
Send me home I'm tired and blue
Broken bones may hurt
But a broken heart will.....
Broken bones may hurt
But a broken heart will
Never mend

yes the meaning is really easy to extract, and the lyrics are simple, but I just love her voice, makes this song so good!
I think this is just about how she needs the person she's singing about, and if she's not with him it all just goes to hell. Pretty simple, really, but a good song anyway.
