Broken / Head Over Heels / Broken (Live) [Massey Hall, Toronto 1985]

Broken

[Interlude]

[Verse 1: Roland Orzabal]
Between the searching and the need to work it out
I stop believing everything will be alright
Broken, we are broken

[Verse 2: Roland Orzabal]
I'm walking uphill being turned around and round
Secret in motion when my feet are on the ground
Broken, we are broken

[Outro: Roland Orzabal]
In my mind's eye
One little boy anger one little man
Funny how time flies
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

Head Over Heels

[Verse 1: Roland Orzabal]
I wanted to be with you alone
And talk about the weather
But traditions I can trace against the child in your face
Won't escape my attention
You keep your distance with a system of touch
And gentle persuasion
I'm lost in admiration - could I need you this much?
Oh, you're wasting my time
You're just, just, just wasting time

[Chorus: Roland Orzabal]
Something happens and I'm head over heels
I never find out till I'm head over heels
Something happens and I'm head over heels
Ah, don't take my heart, don't break my heart
Don't, don't throw it away

[Post-Chorus: Roland Orzabal]
Throw it away
Throw it away

[Verse 2: Roland Orzabal, Curt Smith]
I made a fire, I’m watching it burn
Yeah, I thought of your future
With one foot in the past now just how long will it last?
No, no, no, have you no ambition?
My mother and my brother’s used to breathing clean air
Nothing ever changes when you’re acting your age
And dreaming I’m a doctor
Nothing gets done when you feel like a baby
It’s hard to be a man when there’s a gun in your hand
Nothing ever changes when you’re acting your age
Oh, I feel so

[Chorus: Roland Orzabal]
Something happens and I'm head over heels
I never find out till I'm head over heels
Something happens and I'm head over heels
Ah, don't take my heart, don't break my heart
Don't, don't, don't throw it away
"Don't even think about it... hey!"

[Bridge: Roland Orzabal]
And this is my four leaf clover
I’m on the line, one open mind
This is my four leaf clover

[Outro: Roland Orzabal]
La la-la la la, la la-la la la...
In my mind’s eye
One little boy, one little man
It's funny how time flies

Broken (Reprise)
