Big Country - Broken Heart (Thirteen Valleys) lyrics

Thirteen valleys he has wandered for her love For he thinks he is the one that she dreams of But her bed was made elsewhere from the first day she got there Now he wanders thirteen valleys crying out Now he wanders thirteen valleys crying out It could have been me I said, It could have been me A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on Thirteen valleys she has gone since morning came Well she gave so much that only love remains But her lover is long gone with the money she sent on Now she wanders thirteen valleys crying out Now she wanders thirteen valleys crying out It could have been me I said, It could have been me A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on That broken heart will be forever and a lifetime That broken heart will try your love like none before And you may fight or you may run for what was fast is now undone A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on Thirteen valleys lying silent in the haze Filled with promises and spirits that we raised But the spirits all are ghosts of the ones we hurt the most And they wander thirteen valleys crying out And they wander thirteen valleys crying out It could have been me I said, It could have been me A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on It could have been me I said, It could have been me A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on That broken heart will be forever and a lifetime That broken heart will try your love like none before And you may fight or you may run for what was fast is now undone A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on
