[Verse 1]
I know they've hurt you bad
Why hide the scars you have?
Baby let me straighten out your broken bones
All your faults to me make you more beautiful
[Chorus]
I can't help it
I love the broken ones
The ones who
Need the most patching up
The ones who
Never been loved
Never been loved
Never been loved enough
Maybe I see a part of me in them
The missing piece always trying to fit in
The shattered heart
Hungry for a home
No you're not alone
I love the broken ones
[Verse 2]
You don't have to drive
With your headlights off
It's a pocketknife
Not a gift from God
Don't you learn of love from the love they kept
I will be your anchor slowly
Step by step
[Chorus]
I can't help it
I love the broken ones
The ones who
Need the most patching up
The ones who
Never been loved
Never been loved
Never been loved enough
Maybe I see a part of me in them
The missing piece always trying to fit in
The shattered heart
Hungry for a home
No you're not alone
I love the broken ones
[Bridge]
Maybe we can rip off the bandage
Maybe you will see it for what it is
Maybe we can burn this building
Holding you in
[Chorus]
I can't help it
I love the broken ones
The ones who
Need the most patching up
The ones who
Never been loved
Never been loved
Never been loved enough
Maybe I see a part of me in them
The missing piece always trying to fit in
The shattered heart
Hungry for a home
No you're not alone
I love the broken ones
