Broken Strings

Saturday night, I went to your house
Just to sing a song from the bottom of my heart
On that night, you pushed me away
Just to play the music of great pain

You used to like our favorite love song
One eye open as we sing it along
But you ended it by saying goodbye
This is the song that makes me cry

You are the reason why I can’t breathe
Guitar strings are broken
Don’t know how to fix strings
I see my tears on my broken strings

Remember how we were so much in love
We made songs from guitar, happy and proud
Saturday night, I went to your house
Just to play the music of great pain

We promised love through our song
Always right where you always belong
But you ended it by saying goodbye
This is the song that makes me cry

You are the reason why I can’t breathe
Guitar strings are broken
Don’t know how to fix strings
I see my tears on my broken strings
