This 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.
This heart was almost taken
This heart had a love of its own
This heart was reawakened
When you came along
This heart was born feet runnin'
This heart saw your porch light on
This heart hit the sidewalk wonderin'
Why you left it on
This heart was stranded in the winter
Stuck out in a blizzard in its summer clothes
This heart knows
When the love comes
And when it goes
This heart hears the telephone ringin'
This heart is gonna let it go
Cuz this heart feels the bells she's hearin'
Aren't the telephone
This heart has heard your laughter
This heart had learned how to smile
This heart is your true believer
If you'll stay awhile
This heart this heart
This heart was almost taken
This heart was born feet runnin'
This heart hears the telephone ringin'
Gonna let it go
