  • Right from the start
    You were a thief, you stole my heart
    And I, your willing victim
    I let you see the parts of me, that weren't all that pretty
    And with every touch you fixed them
    Now you've been talking in your sleep oh oh
    Things you never say to me oh oh
    Tell me that you've had enough
    Of our love, our love
    Just give me a reason, just a little bit's enough
    Just a second we're not broken just bent, and we can learn to love again
    It's in the stars, it's been written in the scars on our hearts
    We're not broken just bent, and we can learn to love again
    I'm sorry I don't understand
    Where all of this is coming from
    I thought that we were fine (oh we had everything)
    Your head is running wild again
    My dear we still have everythin'
    And it's all in your mind (yeah but this is happenin')
    You've been havin' real bad dreams oh oh
    You used to lie so close to me oh oh
    There's nothing more than empty sheets between our love, our love
    Oh our love, our love
    Just give me a reason, just a little bit's enough
    Just a second we're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again
    I never stop, you're still written in the scars on my heart
    You're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again
    Oh tear ducts and rust
    I'll fix it for us
    We're collecting dust, but our love's enough
    You're holding it in
    You're pouring a drink
    No nothing is as bad as it seems
    We'll come clean
    Just give me a reason just a little bit's enough
    Just a second we're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again
    It's in the stars, it's been written in the scars on our hearts
    That we're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again
    Just give me a reason, just a little bit's enough
    Just a second we're not broken just bent, and we can learn to love again
    It's in the stars, it's been written in the scars on our hearts
    That we're not broken just bent, and we can learn to love again
    Oh we can learn to love again
    Oh we can learn to love again
    Oh that we're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind

  • Ramsey Mwanza from Mtendere Lusaka Zambiapink she rocks
  • Linda from Oakland, Ca, UsaI absolutely love this song. The lyrics are meaningful and the melody is really catchy. My favorite line is "Nothing is as bad as it seems."
  • Randy from Rio De Janeiro, -Always been a sucker for good harmonizing, and this is a prime example why. It occurred that the Colbie Caillat/Jason Mraz song from a few years ago, "Lucky" could be a prelude to this one, "Lucky" being at the start of a relationship, this one toward the end. Bookends...
  • Dave from Cardiff, WalesI can't believe this failed to reach #1 in the UK, it was one of the most played songs on the radio when it came out! I'm not sure but I think P!nk has still only managed to get to #1 once in the UK, but she has had several #2 hits
  • Kenne from Phoenix, AzThis is Pink's first song to spend multiple weeks at #1, making it her biggest hit to date. (Mid 2013)
