Heart

You held

a heart

And sewed

it deep

So deep

so steeped 

such prince

-ly pleat

And here       I stand

And here        I sleep

Un til        the dawn

Til mourning


You sewed        a heart

And watched        it break

And 'fore

to mar        -rows wretch        -ed wake

When all        is said

And all        is faked

A heart

Doth mar

-tyrs make


oh what        a heart

To hold        a beat

A beat        too neat 

to take        a seat

And if

I hol        -ler in        your keep

My heart        is morse        -ly meek


I want you now

My heart is vain

I guess        I’ll ne        -ver be        the same

And when you come

Just like I came

I'll beg

you neg 

you flame


I beg you heart

To hold me near

To bold        -ly break 

and comm        -an -dear

This heart that calls 

you. stalls        you near

Don’t hes        -i-tate

For fear


For fear of heart

Gives you        a-way 

There is        no pause

There in        the fray

The li        -ons pit

Of ghas        -tly gray

Just fold        your hands

And pray


Your hands

Those hands

To hold        a heart

To hold        my hand

here in        the dark

For now

I fear

I fear 

a spark

I feel

you feel 

your heart
