| It's rare that
I'll write a song that's negative -- and in this case, maybe even a bit
on the
nasty side -- about someone. But sometimes you've just gotta write what you see. The gal who the song is based on actually had many redeeming qualities, but.... Steve H. |
1. She's like the Tin Man in "The
Wizard of Oz" / (If she only had a heart)
She’s got the claws, I can show you
the scars / (If she only had a heart)
She's got the looks and she's got
the kissing / (If she only had a heart)
But you know, there's only one thing
missing (If she only had a heart)
It really is a cryin' shame / and
I guess she's not to blame
If she only had a heart
2. Her alphabet begins and ends with
"I" / (If she only had a heart)
She'll say she loves you, but you
know that's a lie / (If she only had a heart)
It took a little awhile, then I figured
it out/ (If she only had a heart)
She can't understand what love is
all about / (If she only had a heart)
You'll love the way she'll make you
feel / trouble is it just ain't real...
3. There never was a promise that
she didn't love to make / (If she only had a heart)
But there never was a promise that
she wasn't gonna break / (If she only had a heart)
No matter what, you've got to remember
/ (If she only had a heart)
That in the end, it's all about her
/ (If she only had a heart)
She'll stand back and watch you cry
/ and never even bat an eye
'Cause just like that old Tin Man
/ there's a missing part
If she only had a heart
If she only had a heart.
