14th Street - Rufus Wainwright

You got my lost brother's soul

My dear mother's eyes

A brown horse's mane

And my uncle's name

You walked me down 14th Street

With a doctor to meet

After thoughts of the grave

In the home of the brave

And of the weak

But, why'd you have to break all my heart

Couldn't you have saved a little bit of it

Why'd you have to break all my heart

Couldn't you have saved a minor part

I could have clipped and saved and planted in the garden

Damn you, I guess I'll have to get a new one

I'd love to sit and watch you drink,

With the reins to the world, gripping a smoke

Vaguely missing link

Don't ever change

You hungry little bashful hound

I got the sheep

Poor Little Bo Peep has lost

And filed for grounds

But, why'd you have to break all my heart

Couldn't you have saved a little bit of it

Why'd you have to break all my heart

Couldn't you have saved a minor part

I could have ripped apart and thrown into the river

Wonder if there's hearts that will deliver

Don't ever change, don't ever worry

Because I'm coming back home tomorrow

To 14th Street

Where I won't hurry

And where I'll learn how to save

Not just borrow

And they'll be rainbows

And we will finally know

Why'd you have to break all my heart

Couldn't you have saved a little bit of it

Why'd you have to break all my heart

Couldn't you have saved a minor part
