Laurie Anderson - Broken lyrics

You say: Where have you been? I say: Nowhere
You say: There, you're doing it again
You know I can't keep, I can't keep
I can't keep doing this

I wanted our life to be so sweet
To live on harmony
But there are so many things
You just don't want to hear anymore from me
You know I can't keep doing this
I can't keep i can't keep doin' this
Where did it go, the heat?
I can't keep doin' this

I wanted to tell you so many things
But, I lost my voice somewhere along the way
I think to myself where did it go?
Maybe it lives somewhere
Outside the city and it's
Waiting for me there
All I have to do is say the word
And it will come back to me
It will come back to me
But, I can't even recall
How to ask something as big as that

You say: What are you thinking now?
I say: Nothing
You say: There, you're doing it again
How did you get to be my conscience?
You know I can't keep, I can't keep
I can't keep doing this

Where did it go, the heat?

Silence can be a beautiful thing
But only when it can by broken by a kind word
With a soft word with a word
Our love unspoken our love lies broken
