lyrics
Amira
She gapes at everything she sees
But her focus is like the wind
She talks to herself
But she comes to a good place in the end
It’s all a little broken
But broken things are beautiful
She’ll clear her throat as if to speak
But then she only smiles
She says ‘how wonderful to be here together
Despite the long time and distant miles’
It’s all a little broken
Chorus
If this is a lie
I wouldn’t have it any other way
I’m addicted
‘Cause broken things are beautiful
If this is a lie
I wouldn’t have it any other way
I’m addicted
‘Cause broken things are beautiful
If she’s feeling right, she’ll say the words
Tell you what you want to hear
Tell you of your future
But the words are never very clear
It’s all a little broken
But broken things are beautiful
One day I found her sitting in the grass
With her leather notebook and pens
While she drew a mandala
She told me how it all began
It’s all a little broken
But broken things are beautiful
If this is a lie
I wouldn’t have it any other way
I’m addicted
‘Cause broken things are beautiful
If this is a lie
I wouldn’t have it any other way
I’m addicted
‘Cause broken things are beautiful
