Walking alone was all I’ve ever known
Until you came along and gave me your hand to hold
One smile made me weak                                                          
One kiss brought me to my knees
My mind said no
But my heart said yes
Now I’m here cleaning up the mess

Sun leaves and the moon arrives
I guess it must be night
Haven't slept since you left
Here I stand broom in hand
Picking up pieces of my heart
Memories scattered all over the floor
The door still open from when you came and left
In and out just like a hurricane
You broke down my walls
Leaving me open and cold

Time to rebuild
Time to start over anew
Without you
I’ll start with the pieces of my heart
I don’t know what goes where
I’ll rebuild the walls
One brick at a time
But no door
So you can’t get in
And I can’t get out

Sun leaves and the moon arrives
I guess it must be night again
Haven't slept since you left
Here I stand broom in hand
Picking up pieces of my heart
Memories scattered all over the floor
The door still open from when you came and left
In and out just like a hurricane
You broke down my walls
Leaving me open and cold

I don’t know if it’ll ever be the same
Cause something’s missing here and it’s you
I’ve got the pieces of my heart
But it was you that held it together
I’m building the walls
But your name is etched on to every brick
No I don’t I’ll recover from this
I’d take the pain and heartache
Just to hear your lips whisper my name
My world’s upside down
Nothing’s right it’s all wrong
And I won’t be fine anytime soon
No not anytime soon

Sun leaves and the moon arrives
I guess it must be night
Haven't slept since you left
Here I stand broom in hand
Picking up pieces of my heart
Memories scattered all over the floor
The door still open from when you came and left
In and out just like a hurricane
You broke down my walls
Leaving me open and cold
