Paloma Faith - Already Broken Lyrics

We both know that we've had more endings than beginnings
But it feels so right in the night when we're kissing
I'm not the first body that you've ever touched
It's not the first time you've ever been in love
We're both scared to death

But if we give it a chance
I won't tell you to slow it down
And like the others before, yeah
I know you could let me down

And I know you'll say "forever"
And you'll never break my heart
And you'll promise me together
Say your light will fill my dark
My wounds are still open
The best of me's been stolen
'Cause I'm already broken (already broken)

Every time we love and lose, we shed some pieces
I want you as the first, the last and in-between it
Been so long I felt my hear was whole
We grow hard, and words mean less as you get old
You forgive but don't forget

But if we give it a chance
I won't tell you to slow it down
And like the others before, yeah
I know you could let me down

And I know you'll say "forever"
And you'll never break my heart
And you'll promise me together
Say your light will fill my dark
My wounds are still open
The best of me's been stolen

And you'll tell me that I'm perfect
And I'm everything you want
All I am wants to believe it
When deep down I know I'm not
I'm falling in slow motion
Damaged but I'm hoping
'Cause I'm already broken

So leave our pasts behind and let 'em go
'Cause all the scars are ours, so let's let them show

And I know you'll say "forever"
And you'll never break my heart
And you'll promise me together
Say your light will fill my dark
My wounds are still open
The best of me's been stolen

And you'll tell me that I'm perfect
And I'm everything you want
All I am wants to believe it
When deep down I know I'm not
I'm falling in slow motion
For you my heart's still open
'Cause I'm already broken
