What do you do when you're stuck 00:12
Because the one that you love 00:16
Has pushed you away 00:18
And you can't deal with the pain? 00:21
And now you're trying to fix me 00:24
Mend what he did 00:28
I'll find the piece that I'm missing 00:30
But I still miss him 00:33
I miss him, I'm missing him, 00:36
Oh I miss him, I miss him I'm missing him 00:39
And you're sitting in the front row 00:45
Wanna be first in line 00:49
Waiting by my window 00:52
Giving me all your time 00:55
You could be my hero 00:58
If only I could let go 01:00

He's stealing my breath 01:27
When you're around 01:31
And now you're trying to convince me 01:33
He wasn't worth it 01:36
But you can't complete me 01:39

When your heart's in two places? 02:31
You feel great but you're torn inside. 02:35
You feel love but you just can't embrace it 02:41
When you found the right one at the wrong time. 02:46
And you're 02:54
Sitting in the front row 02:55
Wanna be first in line 02:57
Waiting by my window 03:01
Giving me all your time 03:03
You could be my hero 03:06

[English]

What do you do when you're stuck
Because the one that you love
Has pushed you away
And you can't deal with the pain?
And now you're trying to fix me
Mend what he did
I'll find the piece that I'm missing
But I still miss him
I miss him, I'm missing him,
Oh I miss him, I miss him I'm missing him
And you're sitting in the front row
Wanna be first in line
Waiting by my window
Giving me all your time
You could be my hero
If only I could let go
But his love is still in me
Like a broken arrow, oh.
Like a broken arrow, oh-oh.
He's the thorn in my flesh
That I can't take out
He's stealing my breath
When you're around
And now you're trying to convince me
He wasn't worth it
But you can't complete me
He's the thought that is missing
I miss him, I'm missing him
Oh I miss him I miss him, I'm missing him
And you're sitting in the front row
Wanna be first in line
Waiting by my window
Giving me all your time
You could be my hero
If only I could let go
But his love is still in me
Like a broken arrow, oh-oh
Like a broken arrow, oh-oh.
What do you do
When your heart's in two places?
You feel great but you're torn inside.
You feel love but you just can't embrace it
When you found the right one at the wrong time.
And you're
Sitting in the front row
Wanna be first in line
Waiting by my window
Giving me all your time
You could be my hero
If only I could let go
But his love is still in me
Like a broken arrow
Like a broken arrow
