Broken strings
They're been used and thrown away
Thoughtlessly
They're been used and thrown away
My guitar always the same
But the strings forever change

As I sat gazing at my new strings
I started to contemplate the past
I wanted all those old strings back
That had been heaved so carelessly in the trash

I know I've only come half the way
But looking the mirror I see an older me
Not realizing all the years that past away
But I know I've only come half the way
Oh

I wonder how I'll ever carry on
Oh

Broken strings
They're been used and thrown away
Thoughtlessly
They're been used and thrown away
My guitar always the same
But the strings forever change
Oh

I wanted all those old strings back
Oh

I wonder how I'll ever carry on
Oh

I wanted all those old strings back
Oh

How can I have my gentle go back?
Oh

I wanted all those old strings back
Oh

I wanted all those old strings back
Oh
