[Hook]:
Oooh
Oooh

[Verse 1]:
People can't be hand-made
But he keeps slaving away
At a stone that's too hard to break
A girl who's too lost to save

[Chorus 1]:
So you tried to replace me
But you didn't get far
And I tried to repay you
But I only got scarred

[Hook]

[Verse 2]:
She'll be breaking your fall
And I'll be building new walls
But this time I'll have to make sure
To add a window for you to come back

[Chorus]:
And we tried to be faithful
But didn't get far
Now all we'll be left with
Is four broken hearts
I tried to erase you
But didn't get get far
Enough away from you because
You still can break my heart

[Hook]

The daughter of Beatles collaborator Ravi Shankar (her estranged father whom she had little contact with until her adult years), Norah Jones came into her own after studying at Dallas Booker T. Washington School of the Arts. She later spent two years at the University of North Texas' lauded music program in Denton, Texas – alma mater of such diverse music greats as rocker Don Henley and stalwarts Roy Orbison and Pat Boone.

Jones' goal was always to get to New York City, and she succeeded there after years of tough starter music gigs and the almost-cliched waitress jobs. Her debut album Come Away With Me won 5 Grammy Awards for Jones herself, including “Album of the Year”, and “Record of the Year.” Additionally, it won 3 Grammy awards for “Best Engineered Album, Non-Classical,” “Producer of the Year, Non-Classical,” and “Song of the Year,” for collaborators on the album. It has been Certified 10x Multi-Platinum by the RIAA, having sold 10 million albums.
