[Verse 1]
Little black submarines
Operator, please put me back on the line
Told my girl I'd be back

But everybody knows that a broken heart is blind
That a broken heart is blind
[Verse 2]
Pick you up, let you down
When I wanna go to a place I can hide

But everybody knows that a broken heart is blind
That a broken heart is blind
[Verse 3]
Treasure maps, fallen trees
Operator, please call me back when it's time
Stolen friends and disease
Operator, please patch me back to my mind
[Chorus]
Oh, can it be?
The voices calling me
They get lost and out of time
I should've seen it glow
But everybody knows that a broken heart is blind
That a broken heart is blind
That a broken heart is blind
