Todd Rundgren - Broke Down and Busted lyrics

rate me

Look at this empty face,

Look at this broken frame

I have been no other place

And you know I've heard no other name.

How can you keep me so?

How can I let it go?

I look the worst that you've ever seen

Is it too much to ask what that's supposed to mean?

You've been playin' around and I played the part

Of a broke-down man with a busted heart.

Reach out a hand and see

What you have made of me

Take a good hard look and then

Close your eyes and

Ask yourself again

How can you keep me so?

How can I let it go?

You know that I would go anywhere

That I could go in my old wheelchair

Though I wouldn't get far 'til it fell apart

I'm a broke down man with a busted heart.

How can you keep me so?

How can I let it go?

You know my state as you hear my song

You'll change your mind if I live that long

Couldn't start it again

Nothing's left to start

But a busted man with a broke-down heart.
