Broken Strings by James Morrison & Nelly Furtado
Let me hold you
For the last time
It's the last (1)____________ to (2)________ again
But you (3)__________ me
Now I can't feel anything
When I love you and so untrue
I can't even convince myself
When I'm speaking
It's the voice of someone else
Oh... it tears me up
I try to hold on but it hurts too much
I try to forgive but it's not enough
To make it all okay
You can't play on broken strings
You can't feel anything
That (4)________ (5)__________ don't want to feel
I can't tell you something that ain't real
Oh the truth hurts
And lies worse
How can I give anymore
When I (6)________ you a (7)____________ (8)________ (9)________ before?
Oh, what are we doing?
We are turning into dust
Playing house in the ruins of us
Running (10)________ through the fire
When there's nothing (11)________ to save
It's like chasing the very (12)________ train
When it's too late (too late)
Oh... it tears me up
I try to hold on but it (13)__________ too much
I try to forgive but it's not enough
To make it all okay
You can't play on broken strings
You can't feel anything
That your heart don't (14)________ to feel
I can't tell you something (15)________ ain't real
Oh, the truth hurts
And lies worse
How can I give anymore
When I love you a little less (16)________ before?
But we're (17)______________ through the fire
When there's nothing (18)________ to save
It's (19)________ (20)______________ the very last train
When we both know it's too late (too late)
You can't (21)________ on (22)____________ strings
You can't feel anything
That your heart don't want to feel
I can't (23)________ you (24)__________________ that ain't real
Oh, the truth hurts
And (25)________ worse
So how can I give anymore
When I (26)________ you a little less than before?
Oh, you (27)________ that I love you a little less than before
Let me hold you for the last time
It's the last chance to feel again
For the last time
It's the last (1)____________ to (2)________ again
But you (3)__________ me
Now I can't feel anything
When I love you and so untrue
I can't even convince myself
When I'm speaking
It's the voice of someone else
Oh... it tears me up
I try to hold on but it hurts too much
I try to forgive but it's not enough
To make it all okay
You can't play on broken strings

That (4)________ (5)__________ don't want to feel
I can't tell you something that ain't real
Oh the truth hurts
