Lyrics Graham Parker

Graham Parker

Bring Me A Heart Again

I don't feel comfortable

Inside my own skin

It doesn't keep things in

I never get a kick from vodka or gin

Bring me a heart again

I got some courage

And I got a brain

Straw man though I may be

But long ago I felt

My empathy wane

Bring me a heart again

Though I had one once

I must have lost it in the rain

Pushin' up the roots

While ivy grows around

Your windowpane

I walk the city streets for hours at night

Searching for some new clue

But I just hit dead ends

It's always the same

Bring me a heart again

Though I had one once

I must have lost it in the sun

Where it melted fast

And now it can't be found

By anyone

I got some courage

And I got a brain

Straw man though I may be

But long ago I felt

My empathy wane

Bring me a heart again

Bring me a heart again

Bring me a heart again
