Everybody's trying to mend a broken heart
 
 Buy a little bit of love and try to start
 
 Sew your secrets up with cotton and with string
 
 Teach each other little recipes and things to say
 
  
  I'm not like that, it's not like that
 
 I don't hurt like they do, but
 
 But oh you like that, yes, you like that
 
 Yes you need somebody too
  
 
 We put on navy suits and march and keep in line
 
 And laugh at all the silly people out of time
 
 We count the minutes till we heal it with our wine
 
 We climb in bed with pretty strangers and we cry oh oh oh
  
 
 I'm not like that, I'm not like that
 
 I don't wanna hurt like they do
  
 
 They find it hard to be alone
 
 Like everyone else that we know
 
 And when our heads hurt in the dark
 
 We look for beautiful remarks
 
 We find it hard to be alone
 
 Like everyone else that we know
 
 We get our heads hurt in the dark
 
 We need some beautiful remarks
 
 (Yes, we do)
  
 
 We hang up photographs of people that we love
 
 And when we glance at them we think: Well, that's enough
 
 But when our mothers call, we're busy doing stuff
 
 We'll get back to them when things start clearing up oh oh oh
  
 
 I'm not like that, it's not like that
 
 I don't hurt like they do
 
 It's not like that, yes it's like that
 
 Yes, you need somebody too
 
 You're just like that
 
 Yeah, it's like that
 
 Yeah, you need somebody too
 
 Oh you like that, yes, you like that
 
 Yes, you need somebody too
