Broken Heart
B.O.U. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There were no angry words at all
As we carried boxes down the hall
One by one put them in your car
Nothing much for us to say
One last goodbye and you drove away
I watched your tail-lights
As they faded in the dark
I couldn't face the night in that lonely bed
So I laid down on the couch instead
Last night I prayed the lord my soul to keep
Then I cried myself to sleep
So sure life wouldn't go on without you
But oh this sun is blinding me
As it wakes me from the dark I guess the world didn't stop
For my broken heart
Clock still tickin', life goes on
Radio still plays a song
As I try to put my scattered thoughts in place
And it takes all the strength I've got
To stumble to the coffee pot
The first many lonely mornings
I've got to face
You call to see if I'm ok
Look out the window and I just say
Last night I prayed the lord my soul to keep
Then I cried myself to sleep
So sure life wouldn't go on without you
But oh this sun is blinding me
As it wakes me from the dark I guess the world didn't stop
For my broken heart




I guess the world ain't gonna stop
For my broken heart

Line by Line Meaning

There were no angry words at all
There was no heated argument between us


As we carried boxes down the hall
We were packing and moving out of our shared dwelling


One by one put them in your car
The boxes were loaded into your vehicle systematically


Nothing much for us to say
We didn't have much to discuss


One last goodbye and you drove away
We said our final farewell and you departed


I watched your tail-lights
I stood and observed the lights on your vehicle as it drove away


As they faded in the dark
The lights gradually vanished into the night


I couldn't face the night in that lonely bed
I was unable to spend the night alone in that bed


So I laid down on the couch instead
I rested on the couch as an alternative


Last night I prayed the lord my soul to keep
Before falling asleep, I prayed for divine protection


Then I cried myself to sleep
I wept until I fell asleep


So sure life wouldn't go on without you
I was positive that I couldn't continue living without you


But oh this sun is blinding me
The brightness of the morning sun is overwhelming


As it wakes me from the dark I guess the world didn't stop
The world kept moving even though my life with you had come to a halt


Clock still tickin', life goes on
Time persists, life progresses


Radio still plays a song
Music is still being broadcasted on the radio


As I try to put my scattered thoughts in place
I struggle to organize my disordered thinking


And it takes all the strength I've got
It requires all of my willpower


To stumble to the coffee pot
I make my way unsteadily to the coffee maker


The first many lonely mornings
I face several solitary mornings


I've got to face
I have to confront


You call to see if I'm ok
You phone to enquire about my well-being


Look out the window and I just say
I glance out the window and simply reply


I guess the world ain't gonna stop
I realize that the world will not come to a halt


For my broken heart
Despite the pain I'm experiencing

Can you fix a broken heart
That is tearing me apart
I didn't know that this could be so hard

Missing your warm embrace
Angel's smile on your face
Remembering our happy days

How will I start the day
When your love has gone away
Can you help me, help me find the way
Since the day you went away
My life has gone astray
Can you help me, help me find the way

I'd always hear my heart
Calling out your name
I feel within my heart
Crying out in vain
Would you tell me how to mend this pained
Broken heart

Thinking of our memories
Puts me down on my knees
Does it have to end like this
It was like yesterday
When I begged you to stay
But you keep on running away

How will I start the day
When your love has gone away
Can you help me, help me find the way
Since the day you went away
My life has gone astray
Can you help me, help me find the way

I always hear my heart
Calling out your name
I feel within my heart
Crying out in vain
Would you tell me how to mend this pained
Broken heart

How will I start the day
When your love has gone away
Can you help me, help me find the way

I always hear my heart
Calling out your name
I feel within my heart
Crying out in vain
Tell me how to ease the pain
Would you show me how to mend this pained
Broken heart.
