Broken-Heart Jukebox

Lyrics

Verse 1
Coffee gone cold on the nightstand
Your sweater still hangs on my chair
Our picture’s face down in the hallway
Like it’s tired of the glare

Chorus
Life is true, it cuts and cures
Hurts like hell, then somehow heals us
Laughing while my heart still bruises (oh)
I’m dancing in these tangled blues
Sad and sweet, I bend, I move
You’re the ache that keeps me moving
Twisting through this broken-heart jukebox groove

Verse 2
Paycheck spent on cheap red roses
Left them on my own front door
Pretend they came from someone honest
Guess I’m buying my reward

Chorus
Life is true, it cuts and cures
Hurts like hell, then somehow heals us
Laughing while my heart still bruises (yeah)
I’m dancing in these tangled blues
Sad and sweet, I bend, I move
You’re the ache that keeps me moving
Twisting through this broken-heart jukebox groove

Bridge
I want dark, I want romantic
Want to scream, then slow-dance in it (oh)
You were right, you were disaster
Still I chase every echo after

Chorus
Life is true, it cuts and cures
Hurts like hell, then somehow heals us
I’m still here, but changed and human
Dancing in these tangled blues
Sad and sweet, I bend, I move
Let the past keep softly grooving
While I write a better ending over you
