Well I boarded up my heart
And shut out all the light
And the weeds grew up
And the rains came down
And drowned out all my sight
Sounds and scents grew fainter
As love faded like a painter
With a can of black the color of night
My heart drifted off to sleep
Forgot to ever wake up, gave up the fightA little more than half of me
Is missin more than half of you
My hearts been gone so long
Dont even know that its been blue
A little more than half of me
Is missin more than half of you
If you hang around long enough youll see
That aint half bad for meI thought I heard a voice
As I drifted in my sleep
You gotta make a choice boy
You know its time to leap
I squeezed my eyes shut hard
Cause you know my hearts got scars
She just kept sayin baby
Let me be your northern star
My eyes came open just a crack
Cause man shes got the knack
To get this heart back on track
