You cannot miss what don't exist You cannot break a broken heart I'd like to tell you my story But there's no story to tell Till now my life has been boring A list of fond farewells I'm a ridiculous creature I'm like a bird without wings My heart's in permanent winter Yours is forever spring You're a truly lovely thing But I was born with a broken heart, girl I was born with a broken heart I should have told you from the start, girl I should have told you from the start I was born with a broken heart I look alright on the outside I look like all of the rest But there is always a downside A secret to confess I've tried so hard not to show it I've tried so hard to be warm But I can see that you sense it When you are in my arms I don't wanna see you harmed I was born with a broken heart, girl I was born with a broken heart I should have told you from the start, girl I should have told you from the start I was born with a broken heart You cannot miss what don't exist You cannot break a broken heart I was born with a broken heart I should have told you from the start, girl I should have told you from the start But I was born with a broken heart
