Broken Hands Songtext

von Mudhoney

I could see you coming
From miles away
I didn't want it no
No, not today
I could feel you coming
I felt so out of touch
Hangin' on so tight for life
While the bones in your hand got crushed

How come I always know
When the worst is gonna come
Sometimes it's so hard to know
When you can't change what's gonna come
How could they make you come
How could they break your hands
How come I always have to know
These things I can't stand

I loved your fragile fingers
So thin, so smooth, so long
I lose my mega-memory
How did we ever get on
I love your fragile fingers
Oh, how they used to soothe me
I need to hear your play again
To smooth my hard feeling

How come they've made you come
How come they've broken your hands
How come I always have to know
How come I never understand
I never understand
