Broken Warriors – Klender

I still remember Noah, growing up downtown
He was poor, yet bore his heart, ‘til he tore your fences down
His little Jill was pretty, but she never let it show
She tucked that hurt inside her past, like a Marilyn Monroe

They were young and free, maybe they were meant to be

Broken warriors, need each other to survive
Hold onto that ledge of love, ’til you make it home alive
Broken warriors shout (Hey!), live on in a world without
I will always love you ’til the end, broken friend

Jill got in a car crash, cut her face and crushed her chest
Noah never left her side, as she laid there in distress
He said, “love keep on fighting”, as she held his shaking hand
He drove out that stormy night, and brought back a wedding band

They were young and free, pledging their humanity

Many battles later, Jill has another child
And one of them named Noah, shares his daddy’s heartfelt smile

They are young and free, maybe they were meant to be

Broken warriors, need each other to survive
Hold onto that ledge of love, ’til you make it home alive
Broken warriors shout (Hey!), live on in a world without
And I will always love you ’til the end, broken friend
