Other Peoples Hearts - Lyrics by Kirsty Maccoll


Lyrics

I'm staying home this evening
And playing my guitar
And all the time i'm strumming
I'm wondering where you are
Oh yes i know it's over
I know i shouldn't care
But i can't get away from you
It seems you're always there

How come i don't see you anymore?
How come we lost the magic touch?
Why can't i pick up the telephone
When i want to call you so much?
Who's going to make me forget you
And get you off my mind?
I could be out breaking other people's hearts
If you weren't still breaking mine

The winter's drawing in again
Another year has passed
Now i think of things i meant to say
But the time went by so fast
I hear you're living in new york these days
And you don't come here any more
I keep asking myself so many questions
But lately i wonder what i'm wondering for

Who's going to make me forget you
And get you off my mind?
I could be out breaking other people's hearts
If you weren't still breaking mine

I let you pass me by
I never tried too hard
Though you'll never see me cry
You really made your mark

How come i don't see you anymore?
How come we lost the magic touch?
And why can't i pick up the telephone
When i want to hear your voice so much?
Who's going to make me forget you
And get you off my mind?
I could be out breaking other people's hearts
If you weren't
If you weren't still breaking mine
