Big Country – Broken Hearts (Thriteen Valleys) lyrics

Thirteen valleys ha has wandered all alone
for he thinks he is the one that she dreams of
but her bed was made as well
from the day that she got there
now she wonders thirteen valleys crying out,
now she wonders thirteen valleys crying out

CHORUS:
"it coulda been me, I said it coulda been me,
a broken heart needs someone new to blame it on.
a broken heart needs someone new to blame it on"

thirteen valleys she has gone through since morning came,
for she gave so much that only love remains
but her lover is now gone
with the money she sent home
now she wonders thirteen valleys crying out
now she wonders thirteen valleys crying out

Chorus

BRIDGE:
That broken heart will be forever and a lifetime
that broken heart will die of love as once before
and you may fight or you may run
what was fast is now undone
a broken heart needs someone new to blame it on
a broken heart needs someone new to blame it on

thirteen valleys lie in silence in the haze
filled with promises and spirits that we raise
but the spirits are all ghosts of the ones we hurt the most
we wonder thriteen valleys crying out
they wonder thirteen valleys crying out

Chorus

Bridge
