Just giving some love to Mr. James Morrison here. Looks like he's released 'Broken Strings', his duet with Nelly Furtado, as his next single. This is one of my favourite songs from his latest album. The lyrics are awesome so I've included them below for your reading pleasure. Such a heartbreaking song. I've also embedded his music video. I don't really get this video. I mean, do they see each other through the two-way mirror? Why is everything in the bedroom exploding? But whatever. I still love the song.



Broken Strings
By James Morrison

Let me hold you for the last time
It's the last chance to feel again
But you broke me
Now I can't feel anything
When I love you it's so untrue
I can't even convince myself
When I'm speaking
It's the voice of someone else

Refrain:
Oh, it tears me up
I try to hold on but it hurts too much
I try to forgive
But it's not enough
To make it all okay

Chorus:
You can't play on broken strings
You can't feel anything
That your heart don't want to feel
I can't tell you something that ain't real
Oh, the truth hurts
A lie's worse
How can I give anymore
When I love you a little less than before?

Oh, what are we doing?
We are turning into dust
Playing house in the ruins of us
Running back through the fire
When there's nothing left to save
It's like chasing the very last train
When it's too late

Refrain and Chorus

Let me hold you for the last time
It's the last chance to feel again
