The Only Broken Man

oh, father
stumbling to the mat
just like a falling acrobat
oh, father
and oh, mamma
i tried to be so brave
ain't it a shame how little's changed?
ain't it a hard one

and oh, my God
here's my heart
and when it's over, understand
you're not the only broken man

i have been praying
not sure quite to whom
sometimes just to an empty room
i have been praying
and she's been crying
suddenly like clouds
covering all our heads somehow
she has been crying

and oh, my God
here's my heart
and when it's over, understand
faith, i'm an orphan
hold my hand

and build me a sailboat
something made of wood
watch it float further than it should
build me a sailboat
or find a dreamer
someone who has wings
help me float over everything
find me a dreamer

and oh, my God
hold my heart
and when it's over, understand
you're not the only broken man
and faith, i'm an orphan
hold my hand
and strength, be a soldier
help me stand

yeah, you're not the only broken man
broken man
you're not the only broken man
