When I am broken, when I am broken
Will you still wash my wounds?
Ain't it true, oh I'm black and blue, from a life that's left me bruised
The hope I had might as well be dead, it never made it through
All was lost but the thought of you
Oh I'm hurt, drug through the dirt and I try to defy the odds
Try to do what I was called to do, giving all of my to only part of you
And it's so hard, and I ain't always that strong
Oh I am broken, Oh I'm so broken
Will you still wash my wounds?
Don't you wanna leave me alone, 'cause I ain't never home
My heart has turned to stone, don't you see
So how could you love a cowboy like me?
When you are broken, when you are broken
I will still wash your wounds
