Bleeding Is My Heart

Take me in your heart Keep me in your soul Rip me all apart Leave me in pieces on the floor Left me for dead You said you’d never leave In what you said You made me wholeheartedly believe Now I’m sleeping alone in this bed Bleeding is my heart for you Miss what you have to say Long or all that you do Guess that’s the price that I’ll pay For falling so deeply for you No sense faking it You just couldn’t take it You were the one mistaking it There’s no forsaking it Bleeding is my heart Thinking back to when you held me Rocking tightly in your arms Just didn’t see How I fell so quickly for your charms You were so easy to love So easy to hold Seemed we’d fit just like a glove How could you be that cold? Sweet misery gave me a hard shove Bleeding is my heart for you Miss what you have to say Long or all that you do Guess that’s the price that I’ll pay For falling so deeply for you No sense faking it You just couldn’t take it You were the one mistaking it There’s no forsaking it Bleeding is my heart So hurt and extremely wounded Don’t know if I’ll ever be the same Suppose I should have tuned in more For that I’m mostly to blame Wasn’t asking you to marry me But I really didn’t expect this I can’t just let this be Not yet it’s just not quite in me It’s you I miss And I long for your kiss So hurt and extremely wounded Don’t know if I’ll ever be the same Suppose I should have tuned in more For that I’m mostly to blame I could have loved you But you walked away Cold and heartless With nothing to say
