Third recording, best one yet i think...
lyrics ~ Jensper
music ~ Daveh
KEEPER OF A BROKEN HEART
Shattered dreams and ruined yesterdays I tried to wash away
A futile war consuming every night
My promises rejected in the garish light of day
More weapons for self torture in the fight
The loathing of a heart found faulty, pushed away and spurned
My soul in battle had become ungloved
With simple thought and tenderness the only things it yearned
I believed it was unlovely, so unloved
CHORUS
So take this broken heart
Don’t let the world see how it hurt me
And build a wall to keep the savage dogs at bay
I don’t want to live
In this shell of bruised emotion
No, my heart was just too big a price to pay
Hey, hey, hey
Resigned myself to loneliness and took my wounded heart
Withdrawing from the fray I shuffled home
Reconciled and scarred, my soul refused all further part
Believed my heart was better off alone
You’d sat atop a hill and from the sidelines watched the war
Waiting for a chance to rescue me
Slowly helping me to realise I could risk my heart once more
Broke the shackles of my pain to set me free
CHORUS
And take this broken heart
Don’t let the world see how it hurt me
Just build a wall to keep the savage dogs at bay
I don’t want to live
In this shell of bruised emotion
No, my heart was just too big a price to pay
Hey, hey, hey
With a gentle hand you took the pieces of my shattered heart
As tender words brought soothing to my soul
I cautiously surrendered to you each fragmented part
And with your love you’ve slowly made me whole
You waited on my trust, faithfully, making no demands
In time you’ve healed my soul and made it strong
Now my heart is in your keeping, and I know it’s in safe hands
Cos I finally found a place where I belong
CHORUS
You took this broken heart
And swore that you would never hurt me
You made it strong to keep the savage dogs at bay
Now I wanna live
In your soul and in your loving arms
With my heart kept safe until my dying day
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Keeper of a broken heart (x6)
