Second Hand Heart


Verse: I don?t remember my mother; I was only a few months old
When she put me into the Rockland County Home
Sometimes I wonder to this very day
Why she didn?t want me and gave me away

Well, a family from Long Island, they took me in
But I never felt the love of what might have been
I knew I wasn?t wanted right from the start
?Cause nobody wants a second hand heart

Chorus: Does anybody want a second hand heart?
Someone to hold onto before they depart
Tried keeping it together, though it tears me apart
Does anyone want a second hand heart?

Verse: I fell in love and got married at thirty years old
And we raised a little family of our own
I gave my two sons all that I had
I swore on my life I would be the best dad

Seven years together and she left me all alone
So I found a small apartment and I sold our modest home
Sometimes I wonder to this very day
Why she didn?t want me and left me that way

Bridge: I tried my best to live a good life
And be my own man
Sometimes when things don?t work out
You do the best you can
Tried keeping it together
And stay on that track
And maybe then someone might love me back

Verse: So I drove back upstate to the Rockland County Home
And I found a little boy who sat there all alone
I knew that I wanted him right from the start
?Cause somebody wants a second hand heart



Chorus: Yes, somebody wants a second hand heart
Someone to hold onto and never be apart
Like an angel from heaven, a brand new start
Yes, somebody wants a second hand heart
Somebody wants a second hand heart
