Fix This
Robert Cray Band Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Fix this, broken heart of my
I just can't catch my breath
I'm all, torn apart
Trying to forget
All the pain I've been through
And all the time spent with you
Not knowing you never gave a damn about us
Fix this, shattered dream of my
I just can't get no rest
All I, do is cry
I can't get out of bed
A'll I do is think of you
Can't figure out how come
You never gived a damn about us

Need to get it all back together
Search my soul at al costs
Maybe is was for the better
Who knows what else I would have lost

Need to get it back together
Search my soul at all cost
And maybe it was for the better
Who knows what else I would have lost

Somebody, fix this
Shattered pride of my
Save the pieces she left
Can't keep ,telling lies
I just don't have the strength, no
People said that they knew
But all the time I refuse
To be lonely you never gave a damn,
Gave a damn, about us
About us
Somebody fix, this shattered dream
Somebody fix, this broken heart of mine




Fix this
Fix this
