Songtexte This Heart Machinery - Piano Magic

Outside your house, 1993,
I think I left some essential part of me
I try to trace my steps back
I try to play the playback
But when I see your face, I cannot breathe
And I can t figure out this heart machinery
Sometimes it stops for days and really worries me
And I can t form the words and often I can t speak
And when I hear your voice, I have to leave
And there s an actress in a film who looks like you
And I can t watch that film the whole way through
I d like to call you up
I d like to get me straight but
10 years on, it s just too late
The saddest photograph, a splinter in my heart,
is one of you and me, right at the very start
And I can t recognise the person next to you
The mirror fogs
It breaks in two
