This Heart of Mine
You know I hate to love you baby
You're only playin with my heart.
So many dreams you've shattered
So many lives you've torn apart.
If only I could walk away
If my heart could just forget
If the tangled web of love you've spun
Didn't pose such a threat.
Then I could love to love you baby
My heart it could take wings.
I could fall into this love affair
One that had no strings.
But in your hands, my heart a weapon
To be tortured and teased.
My dreams, the ones you've shattered
To be tossed out as you please.
You know I hate to love you baby
Because this heart of mine
Is fragile and it's tender and it's
Living on borrowed time.
