Lyrics
Right from the start
Expressing the beginning of the relationship.
You were a thief, you stole my heart
Metaphorically describing the partner as a "thief" who stole the speaker's heart.
And I your willing victim
Describing oneself as a willing participant in the relationship.
I let you see the parts of me, that weren't all that pretty
Acknowledging vulnerability by revealing less attractive aspects of oneself.
And with every touch you fixed them
Highlighting the partner's positive impact on the speaker, fixing imperfections with love.
Now you've been talking in your sleep oh oh
Noticing the partner talking about undisclosed matters during sleep.
Things you never say to me oh oh
Expressing the partner's reluctance to communicate openly.
Tell me that you've had enough
Partner indicating dissatisfaction with the relationship.
Of our love, our love
Acknowledging challenges in their love.
Just give me a reason, just a little bit's enough
Requesting a reason for the dissatisfaction, a small explanation.
Just a second we're not broken just bent, and we can learn to love again
Asserting that the relationship is not irreparably damaged and can be revived.
It's in the stars, it's been written in the scars on our hearts
Believing in destiny and the enduring nature of their connection.
We're not broken just bent, and we can learn to love again
Reiterating that they are not permanently broken but can heal and love again.
I'm sorry I don't understand
Expressing confusion about the partner's feelings.
Where all of this is coming from
Questioning the source of relationship issues.
I thought that we were fine (Oh we had everything)
Recalling a time when everything seemed fine and expressing surprise at the current situation.
Your head is running wild again
Noting the partner's overactive imagination causing distress.
My dear we still have everythin'
Asserting that they still possess everything needed for a successful relationship.
And it's all in your mind (Yeah but this is happenin')
Addressing the partner's unfounded fears.
You've been havin' real bad dreams oh oh
Partner experiencing distressing dreams.
You used to lie so close to me oh oh
Remembering times of intimacy.
There's nothing more than empty sheets between our love, our love
Describing the physical and emotional distance between them.
Oh our love, our love
Emphasizing the enduring nature of their love.
Just give me a reason, just a little bit's enough
Repeating the request for an explanation for dissatisfaction.
Just a second we're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again
Reiterating the resilience of their relationship.
I never stop, you're still written in the scars on my heart
Affirming the lasting impact of the partner on the speaker.
You're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again
Emphasizing the potential for healing and renewed love.
Oh tear ducts and rust
Mentioning tears and deterioration but expressing the intent to fix the relationship.
I'll fix it for us
Committing to repairing the relationship despite neglect.
We're collecting dust, but our love's enough
Acknowledging neglect but asserting that love is still sufficient.
You're holding it in
Noting emotional suppression.
You're pouring a drink
Observing destructive behavior and coping mechanisms.
No nothing is as bad as it seems
Asserting that problems are not as severe as they may seem.
We'll come clean
Committing to honesty and openness to resolve issues.
Just give me a reason just a little bit's enough
Repeating the request for a small explanation to mend the relationship.
Just a second we're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again
Restating the resilience of their love and potential for revival.
It's in the stars, it's been written in the scars on our hearts
Reiterating belief in destiny and the enduring nature of their connection.
That we're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again
Affirming the potential for healing and renewed love.
Just give me a reason, just a little bit's enough
Repeat of the request for an explanation for dissatisfaction.
Just a second we're not broken just bent, and we can learn to love again
Reiterating the resilience of their relationship.
It's in the stars, it's been written in the scars on our hearts
Reiterating belief in destiny and the enduring nature of their connection.
That we're not broken just bent, and we can learn to love again
Affirming the potential for healing and renewed love.
Oh we can learn to love again
Expressing the possibility of learning to love again.
Oh we can learn to love again oh oh
Repeating the sentiment of learning to love again.
Oh that we're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again
Emphasizing the resilience of their love and the potential for renewal.
