[Verse 1] I still remember my first love His hands shook when he stayed He said my name like a doorway Then slipped on the way He was more broken than me I saw it in the glass I was trying to hold both of us But nothing ever lasts [Pre-Chorus] And I kept score in my chest Like I could earn the pain Every goodbye left a little dust In the seams of my name [Chorus] I loved in broken ways I loved in broken ways (way, way, way) And still I kept on staying I guess I’m lucky that way I guess I’m lucky that way (way, way, way) If lucky means keep swaying [Verse 2] I remember my second love That time I was unkind I said the sharp thing first Then heard it split my mind I wore my pride like armor You wore your hurt like rain Two fools in a small room Calling damage by its name [Pre-Chorus] And every door I closed Still had your shadow in it I learned too late that love Can bruise you in a minute [Chorus] I loved in broken ways I loved in broken ways (way, way, way) And still I kept on staying I guess I’m lucky that way I guess I’m lucky that way (way, way, way) If lucky means keep swaying [Bridge] I remember many loves Their names like cuts that fade Some were a match, some were rain Some just looked my way So if I’m kinder now It came from all I’ve lost From every hand I let go And every line I crossed [Final Chorus] I loved in broken ways I loved in broken ways (way, way, way) And still I kept on staying I guess I’m lucky that way I guess I’m lucky that way (way, way, way) I’m here, and I’m still changing
