[Verse 1]

I carry your heart around

Like a child that has just been born

I try not to let you down

And I try not to show my thorns

You can run but cannot hide

If we fail, then at least I tried

To save your soul from becoming hurt and scared

[Pre-Chorus]

I pretend that things are alright

I can comfort you and hold you tight

To love you feels like

Walking on broken glass

[Chorus]

Will you carry my heart around

When it's old and grey?

Will you stay until we fade away?

[Verse]

I will never forget the day

Our souls became one

And I know there's a secret

We've been

Swallowing

Lying so passionately

[Pre-Chorus]

I pretend that things are alright

I can comfort you and hold you tight

To love you feels like

Walking on broken glass

[Chorus]

Will you carry my hеart around

When it's old and grey?

Will you stay until we fadе away?

Walking on broken glass

Walking on broken glass

[Bridge]

Will you stand at my grave

And mourn in loneliness

Will you be with me

Throw away the key

And wait until we meet in death?

[Chorus]

Will you carry my heart around

When it's old and grey?

Will you stay until we fade away?

[Outro]

Will you be with me

Throw away the key

And wait until we meet in death?

... until then, we're walking on broken glass
