Stains from cups of tea
And notebooks once empty
Are all that's left
From days when songs in minor keys
Were the only remedy
I knew to fill a hollow chest
'Cause breakability
Was written on the sleeve
Where my heart chose to be
But you sat down with a needle and thread
Strung my heart together again
And all the king's horses and all the king's men
Only had failed attempts
And if time pulls us apart
My dear you hold this patched up heart
Oh our stepping feet
Follow one beat
As we turn to a new day
And my soul found my cheeks
Once blank, now are rosy
And you are to blame
'Cause breakability
Was written on the sleeve
Where my heart chose to be
Then
You sat down with a needle and thread
Strung my heart together again
And all the king's horses and all the king's men
Only had failed attempts
And if time pulls us apart
My dear you hold this patched up heart
So no measure of days
Or time that quickly fades
Could make me forget
That between the stitches and seams
You'll always be a part of this
You sat down with a needle and thread
You strung my heart together again
And if time pulls us apart
Oh my dear you hold this patched up heart
This patched up heart
This patched
Up
Heart
This patched up heart
