(Paul/Robbins/Miller)

I see my mom and dadæ?¯ wedding picture hanging in the hall
That picture of happiness tries to sell it but it doesnæ?° tell it all
Itæ?¯ been 22 years since they walked down the aisle

Now they seldom talk and I never see 榹m smile
Theyæ?®e living their lives in the land of the brokenhearted

My old man gave me a job right out of high school
Just like his old man did
Itæ?¯ a dead-end street of barely making ends meet
That I just canæ?° live with
Now we can hang around here and wind up the same
Or kick it in gear girl and outrun the pain

Weæ?®e leaving the land of the brokenhearted
Lettinour motors run
The sea of tears has finally parted
Baby our time has come
Weæ?®e getting out now while we still have forever
For you and me girl, itæ?¯ now or never
Weæ?®e leaving the land of the brokenhearted

Itæ?¯ a lottery ticket chance of getting out and I never met a winner
No nothing ever changes around here but the weather
and what they had for dinner
Itæ?¯ a chain of broken dreams and we were born to break it
That bitter pill theyæ?®e dealing, weæ?®e not gonna take it

Weæ?®e leaving the land of the brokenhearted
Lettinour motors run
The sea of tears has finally parted
Baby our time has come
Weæ?®e getting out now while we still have forever
For you and me girl, itæ?¯ now or never
Weæ?®e leaving the land of the brokenhearted

Weæ?®e leaving the land of the brokenhearted
Baby weæ?®e leaving, just you and me
Yeah weæ?®e leaving the land
Leaving the land
Leaving the land of the brokenhearted
Leaving the land, leaving the land
Leaving the land of the broken, brokenhearted
