Lyrics
When I Was In Your Heart
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Somebody should have told you
I never knew
It's just another letter
Returning to
When I was in your heart
Now every word is falling
On stony ground
It feels as if the music
Could lay me down
When I was in your heart
When I was in your heart
Because we wanted to
Because we wanted to
Because we wanted to pretend
We wanted to pretend
Now someone else is catching
Those gravy trains
And one poor bastard's loss is
Another's gains
The Saviour put a bullet
Right through his brains
When I was in your heart
When I was in your heart
When I was in your heart
