Bring Me A Heart Again - Graham Parker

Bring Me A Heart Again Lyrics

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

I must have lost it in the sun
Where it melted fast
And now it can't be found
By anyoneI 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
