Big Country - Broken Heart (Thirteen Valleys) Lyrics
Thirteen valleys he has wandered for her love
For he thinks he is the one that she dreams of
But her bed was made elsewhere from the first day she got there
Now he wanders thirteen valleys crying out
Now he wanders thirteen valleys crying out
It could have been me
I said, It could have been me
A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on
A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on
Thirteen valleys she has gone since morning came
Well she gave so much that only love remains
But her lover is long gone with the money she sent on
Now she wanders thirteen valleys crying out
Now she wanders thirteen valleys crying out
It could have been me
I said, It could have been me
A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on
A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on
That broken heart will be forever and a lifetime
That broken heart will try your love like none before
And you may fight or you may run for what was fast is now undone
A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on
A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on
Thirteen valleys lying silent in the haze
Filled with promises and spirits that we raised
But the spirits all are ghosts of the ones we hurt the most
And they wander thirteen valleys crying out
And they wander thirteen valleys crying out
It could have been me
I said, It could have been me
A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on
It could have been me
I said, It could have been me
A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on
That broken heart will be forever and a lifetime
That broken heart will try your love like none before
And you may fight or you may run for what was fast is now undone
A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on
A broken heart needs someone new to blame it on

❤️ ❤️ ❤️
Talent beyond belief lyrics from the heart rip Stuart... You inspired me thank you for that 🌈💞
I got more u in me than dove
Bought this and the Album the day it came out
a great song such depth.I wish Stuart Adamson was of this earth now. RIP Stuart..
If you come from an immigrant background, this song is especially poignant. You send home your money, photos, hopes and aspirations, one letter at a time. When you return, it is a big disappointment The ones you loved and left behind are jaded, absent, drunk, jealous, married or resigned to one of 13 valleys of despair mentioned in this song . Can't help but to think "it could have been me".
God Bless you Stuart..miss your genius
Excellence!
We miss you Adam
Pure genius! ❤️🎶
What a song from a giant of a man !
Absolutely agree. I keep uncovering hidden gems by Big Country.. Adamson was a folk rock legend.
You tell 'em how it is Stuart.
I'm a 16 year old girl and this is actually one of my favorite songs. So good.
