A man had no heart
He did not lose it,
He just simply did not have one

The definition of sweet said:
It's ok, I will make you one
And she gradually pieced one together

There was only one stipulation
That could not be defined as simply just or unjust
This heart was fatally connected to its creator

Instead of look for a way out
Instead of look for the easy way in
He decided to look nowhere

He need look no farther than what he had gained
Where there was a hole before
Was now plugged up with a heart

It would be foolish to say that he was now whole
To say he was a whole man
But amendments refine the crude

Time heals all, time preserves all
His life was now hers, but he could not complain
For where there was nothing, there now was all to be gained
