Broken Places Lyrics - Singles - The Roches

Did you know me, long ago? 

Were we close before the sorrow? 

If you thought of leaving any traces 

I'll be sifting through the broken places 

Did I know you once upon a time 

You dreamed of me and now I'm? 

Searching for myself in strangers' faces 

Stumbling onto further broken places 

She turns purple, am I blue? 

Can't she fathom, what I do? 

Trying to get in her better graces 

Touching her in all the broken places 

I get crazy not sure why 

Solace beckons until I 

Go tearing off again on wild chases 

Crashing into same old broken places 

I am young so who's to say 

But for now I have no way 

Of knowing how much healing time erases 

Certain of these secret broken places 

Can't there be a little breather? 

Our love is a real seether 

To sore hearts we plead our hapless cases 

Rendezvousing at the broken places 

I love you for all of this 

Struggling towards happiness 

When the chips are down we play our aces 

Hiding them in our broken places
