[English]
There's a girl but I let her get away
It's all my fault cause pride got in the way
And I'd be lying if I said I was ok
About that girl the one I let get away
I keep saying no
This can't be the way it was supposed to be
I keep saying no
There's gotta be a way to get you close to me
Now I know you gotta speak up if you want somebody
Can't let them get away, oh no
You don't wanna end up sorry
The way that I'm feeling everyday
Don't you know
No no no no
There's no home for the broken heart
No no no no
There's no home for the broken
There's a girl but I let her get away
Its my fault cause I said I needed space
And I've been torturing myself night and day
About that girl, the one I let get away
I keep saying no
This can't be the way it was supposed to be
I keep saying no
There's gotta be a way
To get you close to me
You gotta speak up if you want somebody
Can't let them get away, oh no
You don't wanna end up sorry
The way that I'm feeling everyday
Don't you know
No no no no
There's no home for the broken heart
No no no no
There's no home for the broken
No home for me
No home cause I'm broken
No room to breathe
And I got no one to blame
No home for me
No home cause I'm broken
About that girl
The one I let get away
So you better speak up if you want somebody
You don't wanna end up sorry oh no
You don't wanna end up sorry oh no
The way that I'm feeling everyday
Don't you know
No no no no
There's no home for the broken heart
No no no no
There's no home for the broken
Oh
You don't wanna lose that love
It's only gonna hurt too much
I'm telling you
You don't wanna lose that love
It's only gonna hurt too much
You don't wanna lose that love
Cause there's no hope for the broken heart
About that girl
The one I let get away
