Broken English
[Verse 1]
Nothing is safer
Nothing is softer
Nothing can make me feel so close
Breaking the silence
Sing me to sleep with
Barry Manilow
[Chorus]
Hint of an accent
Mix up the past tense
But man it feels like home
Oh nothing feels as perfect as your broken
Broken English, oh ooh oooohh
[Verse 2]
All of the questions
Best of intentions
Try to protect you best I can
Teach you the words and
Teach you the world that
Sometimes it's hard to understand
[Chorus]
Hint of an accent
Mix up the past tense
But man it feels like home
Oh, nothing feels like love lettеrs and broken
Broken English, oh ooh oooohh
[Bridge]
I kinda hate it hеre
Watching how they talk down to you
I kinda hate it here
Why can't they hear you like I do?
I kinda hate it here
Oh God but to me
[Verse 3]
I think it's precious
I think it's perfect
I think it's brave and God damn hard
Lost in translation but I hear what you're saying
Know that I know how smart you are
[Chorus]
Hint of an accent
Mix up the past tense
But this is still your home
Nothing feels as perfect as your broken
Broken English, oh ooh oooohh
