How does a broken heart fall in love...

He came into my life
not so long after someone had
just shattered my heart and soul
He entered my mind
when I didn't want him to
made me laugh and comforted me
when I never asked him to
He cared for me and fell for me
when I didn't need him to
And I found myself starting to fall
when I thought it was impossible
After all, how does a broken heart fall in love

I didn't even know him too well
I only knew the intensity of his passion
whenever he looked at me
I only saw his sadness and tears
that was all because of me
I only felt the tenderness of his love
when he held me
All I knew was that
I didn't want to let him in
I tried to stop myself but was unable
I was so sure it wasn't possible
After all, how does a broken heart fall in love

How did something
that needed mending
be able to function like it was whole
How could the feeling start
when it had just been torn apart
and was able to do it's role
Maybe it wasn't working properly
or I just needed to listen more attentively
so my ears I kept wide open
how could that happen
How does a broken heart fall in love

When I closed my eyes
I still saw him
I covered my ears
and still I heard him
He wasn't around
but I could still smell him
I had nothing else to do but comply
there was just no way to deny
My broken heart just fell in love
