Lyrics
This Heart?s Got Wings
© David Stuart Owen
Let me tell a story ?bout a man with a heart full of stone
And it?s made of stone
He could love ?em or leave ?em, or wine and dine ?em
?Till the cows came home
But too many times his love was left bleedin?
With a question on the run
He never ran too long with the one he thought he loved
?Cause a mystery had come
This heart?s got wings
It gave him a way
To bury his lovin? soul
This heart?s got wings
It flies away
Then he hears it sing
Foolish heart
Why did you go away so soon?
You could?ve landed in her arms
Now you?re singing the same ?ol tune
Foolish heart
Why did you fly away so soon?
You had a place to land
You had a chance
To feel your heart in bloom
(Small Break)
This heart?s got wings
It gave him a way
To bury his lovin? days
This heart?s got wings
It flutters away
Then he hears it say
Every now and then a love would come runnin? ?round
And sweep him off his feet
He?d soar right down, swoop it all up
Carry it as his own
But too many times that love would let him down
And leave him out to dry
He?d pick himself up, and find a new flight pattern
Way up in the sky
This heart?s got wings
It gave him a way
To bury his lovin? soul
This heart?s got wings
It flies away
Then he hears it sing
Foolish heart
Why did you fly away so soon?
You could?ve landed in her arms
Now you?re singing the same ?ol tune
Foolish heart
Why did you go away so soon?
You had a place to land
You had a chance
To feel your heart in bloom
Oooo Oooo Oooo Oooo
