Broken Strings - James Morrison

Let me hold you for the last time 
It's the last chance to feel again 
But you broke 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 tried to hold on but it hurts too much  
I tried to forgive but it's not enough 
To make it all okay
 

You can't play our broken strings 
You can't feel anything 
That your heart 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 love you a little less than before?
 

Oh, what are we doing? 
We are turning into dust 
Playing house in the ruins of us
Running back through the fire 

When there's nothing left to say 
It's like chasing the very last train 
When it's too late, too late

Oh, it tears me up  

I tried to hold on but it hurts too much 
I tried to forgive but it's not enough 
To make it all okay
 

You can't play our broken strings 
You can't feel anything  
That your heart 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 love you a little less than before?
 

But we're running through the fire 
When there's nothing left to say  
It's like chasing the very last train 
When we both know it's too late, too late
 

You can't play our broken strings 
You can't feel anything 
That your heart don't want to feel 
I can't tell you something that ain't real
Oh, the truth hurts and lies worse 

So how can I give anymore  
When I love you a little less than before? 


Oh, you know 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
