HEART OF MY OWN
I can`t go near the scent of flowers.
I can`t look at the sky.
I can`t turn on the radio
And not cry.
I won`t watch lovers holding hands
Or the sun sinking down.
I can`t look at a single thing in this town.
You were playing a game and I,
I lost count of the days and the nights.
Do you know that you were my life?
I`m tryin` hard to find all that`s left of me,
Now that you left me alone.
Tired of runnin` away from your memory.
I need a heart of my own.
I have looked through every single book,
Torn through every poem,
Heard the words of every voice
That I`ve known.
How can you have such a hold on me,
When you`ve already let go?
You must have more power than I know.
Woah.
You were playing a game and I,
I lost count of the days and the nights.
Oh, did you know that you were my life?!
I`m tryin` hard to find all that`s left of me,
Now that you left me alone.
I`m tired of runnin` away from your memory.
I need a heart of my own.
You gave me heaven and showed me how to fly,
Then laughed when I fell from the sky, yeah!
[Guitar Interlude]
Tired of runnin` away from your memory.
I need a heart of my own.
I`m tryin` hard to find all that`s left of me,
Now that you left me alone.
I`m tired of runnin` away from your memory.
I need a heart of my own.
[Repeat Chorus]
