Lyrics The Everly Brothers

The Everly Brothers

Three Bands of Steel

Have you ever had your heart so broke

It took three bands of steel to mend it

And hold it together

My days become one long and lonely night

Have you ever given all and everything

Enough to fill the ocean

And then she wants a river

Her love was false but oh the heartache’s real

My heart’s, so heavy, it’s a burden

Its moans and cries won’t let me sleep

Even though, I picked up all the pieces

I still feel broken up and incomplete

Have you ever opened up your eyes

And couldn’t see the daylight

And then came the darkness

What’s holding me together isn’t

Concrete, rope or leather

I pray they last forever

Three bands of steel

Three bands of steel

Three bands of steel

Three bands of steel

They’re holding me together

Three bands of steel
