8.6 Days All The Broken Hearts by The Bar Stool Preachers Lyrics

He was a hell of a drinker
Not much of a boyfriend
In between jobs
It was kind of a trend

She was easy on the eye
So hard on the heart
She had her bags packed;
She’d been running from the start

There was something about her
He couldn’t let the chance pass
In a heartbeat that felt like an age
He gathered courage to ask

A million heartbeats later they’re sat inside some pub
She doesn’t know why she likes him
She says it must be love

He picks himself up off the mirror and dusts himself down again, Without a warning, he says
I don’t know what you ever saw in me darling
With all the broken hearts you’ll never be alone
These feelings that last for years aren’t yet done

With all the broken hearts you’ll never be alone
These feelings that last for years aren’t yet done

You’ve kinda gotta wonder
How he stays wasted every night
She says he makes her feel safe
So I guess that’s all alright?

But safe didn’t cut it
When the past knocked at her door
With a tear and her packed bag
She was running some more
She caught a reflection of the pain as a bus passes by

She says to herself, not this time
She flies back home
Takes his head in her hands and says to his face;
I fucking love you
I don’t get it
Coz I don’t know what you ever saw in me darling

Coz with all the broken hearts you’ll never be alone
These feelings that last for years
Aren’t yet done
Coz with all the broken hearts you’ll never be alone
These feelings that last for years
Aren’t yet done
