I know alone by heart
And it's not a funny thing
I'm looking for the finish at the start
But I've stopped waiting for the phone to ring

'Cause I'm tired of trying to find the one who's mine

[Chorus]
And broken hearts don't make a whole
And I've heard it all
And water won't wash out the stains
So I'm here again
And there's no end at the start
So I'll fall apart
And love is not something you own
But I know alone by heart

All of the songs I sing
And all the hands I hold
Well, they're only phantoms that I bring
And all of the hands are cold

But I'm tired

[Chorus]
'Cause broken hearts don't make a whole
And I've heard it all
And water won't wash out the stains
So I'm here again
And there's no end at the start
So I fall apart
And there's nothing I can do
So I wait for you

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
Broken hearts don't make a whole
And I've heard it all
And water won't wash out the stains
But I'm here again
And there's no end at the start
So I'll fall apart
And there's nothing I can do
But I'll cry for you

I know alone by heart
And it's not a funny thing
