Broken Hearts Beat On

When old clocks break
They won’t tell time
When toll bells shatter
They won’t chime
Hearts break in pieces
When love is gone
But broken hearts beat on
Boat springs a leak
And it won’t float
When poems don’t rhyme
They don’t get wrote
Hearts get walked on
Like stepping stones
But broken hearts beat on
When planes get broke
They won’t fly
When stars can’t hold on
They fall from the sky
Things like that
Make me wonder why
Broken hearts beat on
I can speak on that
With authority
You made a perfect
Example of me
Here I stand living proof
That proves to me
Broken hearts beat on
When planes get broke
They won’t fly
When stars can’t hold on
They fall from the sky
Things like that
Make me wonder why
Broken hearts beat on
