lyrics

THE FIXER

Hid my heart full of shards away from view
None could see the holes except for you
You patched me up and set me straight
On the path to a lover’s gate

I took it out and tried it on
My new heart, the same old song
It whistled and leaked all the way
Leaving a trail to my lover’s gate

Fix me up

It seemed to be shiny and fine
Withstood the fear and trouble in mind
It grew and grew and could not wait
My heart, it rushed to my lover’s gate

It filled up and burst the seams
Gushing, flooding beds and streams
Drowning all in its way
My heart, it broke at my lover’s gate

I bring it back for you to fix
You say sometimes it’s how it is
“You drop your heart, and then you break
You mend and then, one day, you love again”

Go through the gate
Fix me up...love me, fix me
