Bring Me a Heart Again Songtext

von Graham Parker

I don't feel comfortable
Inside my own skin
It doesn't keep things in
I never get a kick from vodka or gin
Bring me a heart again

I got some courage
And I got a brain
Straw man though I may be
But long ago I felt
My empathy wane
Bring me a heart again

Though I had one once
I must have lost it in the rain
Pushin' up the roots
While ivy grows around
Your windowpane

I walk the city streets for hours at night
Searching for some new clue
But I just hit dead ends
It's always the same
Bring me a heart again

Though I had one once
I must have lost it in the sun
Where it melted fast
And now it can't be found
By anyone

I got some courage
And I got a brain
Straw man though I may be
But long ago I felt
My empathy wane
Bring me a heart again
Bring me a heart again
Bring me a heart again
