Lyrics

She's standing center of the storm
Heartbroke and a little worn
There was a time she was in the light
There were no cloudy days
There was a boy she could cling to tight
But they would fuss and they would fight
Now she goes to bed and prays for the day
He'll come back, never go away
From this town that holds her tight instead of his arms

Now she's trying hard to find her way
She listens to the songs that the radio plays
Some make her laugh some make her cry
Lord only knows how and why
She's a broken girl
And she's living in a broken world

Spent some time in juvenile hall
He should have been playing football
He was a good kid until he smelled the world
It took him high as a kite
There was a girl
Would have been his wife
But Uncle Sam came calling one night
Lost his best friend and a piece of his mind
While he was holding down the front line
Hasn't been the same since he went away
I guess he left it over there

Now he's trying hard to find his way
He listens to the songs that the radio plays
Some make him laugh some make him cry
Lord only knows how and why
He's a broken boy
And he's living in a broken world

You've seen them yourself
You stop and stare
Wondering what's going on up there
But truth be told
I'd like to know
Maybe it's a place I need to go

We're all trying hard to find our way
We listen to the songs that the radio plays
Some make us laugh
Some make us cry
Lord only knows how and why
We're all broken
Just a little bit broken
We're all broken
And we're living in a broken world
