Lyrics
Boots Or Hearts
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.
Well, I think that there's a problem here
Her voice just don't sound right
But I left myself on her answering machine
Said "I'm back in town tonight"
I feel I've stepped out of the wilderness
all squint-eyed and confused
But even babies raised by wolves they know exactly when they'vebeen used
See, when it starts to fall apart, man it really falls apart
Like boots or hearts oh when they start, they really fall apart
Fingers and toes, fingers and toes
forty things we share
Forty-one if you include the fact that we don't care
Now you've blocked off most of mainstreet for your faith parade
Well everyone in town now they'd probably all agree I'm lying inthe bed I made
See when it starts to fall apart, man, it really falls apart
Like boots or hearts oh when they start they really fall apart
Well fall apart
Now you won't even let me talk to you, we've got some air toclear
Probably only agree on one thing anyway
That's what the hell is happening here?
Fingers and toes, fingers and toes
Forty things we share
Forty-one if you include the fact that we don't care
See when it starts to fall apart, man, it really falls apart
Like boots or hearts oh when they start they really fall apart
Well fall apart
