Box of Hearts

I lay gutted upon the floor
Please do hurry through my back door
In the cupboard, high on a shelf
My special box of beating hearts

If you would please bring one to me
A brand-new heart is what I need
This old one has broken in two
Torn up, beat up, it just won’t do

Fresh and new like a summer’s breeze
Gives me hope as it beats inside
Send a new love to me oh please
I’m taking this heart for a ride

I rise-up from my knees and smile
Renewed once more my life will start
Wait for me as I lock the door
Goodbye for now dear box of hearts
