Brooms and Mops

lyrics

I don't want to win if it means that I'll lose a good friend
And I don't want to marry him if it means that I'll never smile again
And I don't want more if it means that I'll never be fulfilled
And this folklore means nothing if it was never real

Brooms and mops over marble countertops
A life of teardrops over pain that never stops
Brooms and mops over marble countertops
A life of teardrops over pain that never stops

I don't want to say goodbye if it means that I won't see you tomorrow
And I don't want to try if it means I'll be empty and hollow
And I don't want to love if it means going insane
'Cause it's already rough and I don't need anymore pain

Brooms and mops over marble countertops
A life of teardrops over pain that never stops
Brooms and mops over marble countertops
A life of teardrops over pain that never stops

I'll take old brooms and mops over marble countertops
A life of teardrops over pain that never stops
Brooms and mops over marble countertops
A life of teardrops over pain that never stops 06
