Give Me Back My Heart
words and music by Mary Shawn Bayer
(C) 2001 (P) 2004 MSB/ASCAP
You can keep the Silver frame
that holds the image of what we were meant to be
I don't want them any longer
I don't need to see those memories
I don't want the bed I slept in
Or the couch where you would stay and watch TV
You can have the house you made me
As long as you can do something for me
Give me back my heart
Give me back the years
Give me back my life the way it was
When you weren't here
Give me back my hope
Give me back my dreams
Give me back a reason to believe
When I got your letter
from the court appointed man outside my door
I knew the worst was over
For you could not have taken anymore
I would gladly give you everything
If you would only agree
To find those pieces of my lifetime
I need them to put back together me
Give me back my heart
Give me back the years
Give me back my life the way it was
when you weren't here
Give me back my hopes
Give me back my dreams
Give me back a reason to believe
Give me back my heart
Give me back the years
Give me back my life the way it was
When you weren't here
Give me back my hopes
Give me back my dreams
Give me back a reason to believe
Give me back a reason
