What Is A Broken Heart For
© The Hello Darlins 2023
O- ohh my broken heart
What is it for
O-ohh my broken heart
What is a broken heart for
Gimme a minute of time
I can’t keep up with the pace
You’ve got a lot on your mind
You’ve got a lot on your plate
I’ve got a lot to be thankful for, oh
but this one I’m failing to see
You let me fall so in love
Only to to take it from me
I’ll never ask you to save me
I’ll never cry and repent
I’ll never ask your forgiveness
I don’t need to get into heaven
Don’t need my prayers to be answered
I don’t need anything more
But God won’t you answer the question, tell me,
What is a broken heart for?
O- ohh my broken heart
What is it for
O-ohh my broken heart
What is a broken heart for
I’ll give you thanks for my family
and I’m getting on with my days
You can watch over my neighbours
But don’t even worry ‘bout me
Cause I heard the lesson on Sunday morning
but this one I can’t understand
How can you say that you love me
and still let me go through this pain
I’ll never ask you to save me
I’ll never cry and repent
I’ll never ask your forgiveness
I don’t need to get into heaven
Don’t need my prayers to be answered
I don’t need anything more
But God won’t you answer the question, tell me,
What is a broken heart for?

What is a Broken Heart For? is a playful, upbeat song reminiscent of Linda Ronstadt, with classic harmonies of the Eagles. An instantly singable chorus with a relatable message - if you’ve ever experienced disappointment or heartache. Lead vocalist Candace Lacina is often compared to Linda Ronstadt and the song features bass player Bob Glaub, (Jackson Browne, James Taylor) who recorded on both Warren Zevon and Linda Ronstadt’s versions of “Poor Poor Pitiful Me.“, with a similar, classic feel. It asks the question, “what’s the point of love, if it often leaves you broken-hearted?“ What is a Broken Heart For? was recorded at United Recording Studios as part of an upcoming release of new material. The Hello Darlins , are often referred to as the “One-Band Americana Festival“ - which speaks to their live show - energetic, fun and stylistically diverse.
