about

This was written before my third date with my future wife. We didn't kiss until our fourth.

* Didn't appear on original album.

lyrics

Don't place too much hope in this
Third date and first kiss
Could be good, could be bad
Could be the best thing we ever had
Could be better, could be worse
Call the doctor, call the nurse

Cause broken hearts aren't broken legs
They heal no better than broken eggs
Broken hearts aren't broken wings
They heal no better than broken strings

Call the doctor
Call the priest
I'm breathing
But my heart's deceased
Call the nuns, call the nurse
Now that I've confessed
Put me in a hearse
Call the lawyers
Call the cops
The alarm bells never stop
Call the ambulance and fire truck
I'm burning from the worst of luck

Cause broken hearts aren't broken legs
They heal no better than broken eggs
Broken hearts aren't broken wings
They heal no better than broken strings
