Broken Lyrics by Jack Johnson

Sing-A-Longs and Lullabies for the Film Curious George

2006

[Verse 1]
With everything ahead of us
We left everything behind
But nothing that we needed
At least not at this time

And now the feeling that I'm feeling
Well it's feeling like my life is finally mine
With nothing to go back to we just continue to drive

[Chorus]
Without you I was broken
And I'd rather be broke down with you by my side
So without you I was broken
But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side

[Verse 2]
I didn't know what I was looking for
So I didn't know what I'd find
I didn't know what I was missing
I guess you've been just a little too kind

And if I find just what I need
I'll put a little peace in my mind
Maybe you've been looking too
Or maybe you don't even need to try

[Chorus]
Without you I was broken
And I'd rather be broke down with you by my side
So without you I was broken
But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side

[Verse 3]
With everything in the past
Fading faster and faster until it was gone
Found out I was losing so much more than I knew all along
Because everything I've been working for
Was only worth nickels and dimes

[Bridge]
But if I had a minute for every hour that I've wasted
I'd be rich in time, I'd be doing fine

[Chorus]
'Cause without you I was broken
But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side
So without you I was broken
But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side
So without you I was broken
But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side
So without you I was broken
But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side
