Having no one to love Makes the heart so lonely The loss of the pitter-patter Heartbeat And butterflies The Cold War came And wiped us off the map Who would've thought I'd die of a heart attack When I had no heart at all? Not really anyway It was all mind over matter And I dreamt of you So what's it going to be? Doors double locked And knobby knees Shaking like I used to When I played you a song I never called you by your name It was never my tongue's to hold But it was inside this empty heart This busted bag of bones

Love Song No. 1
Having no one to love Makes the heart so lonely The loss of the pitter-patter Heartbeat And butterflies The Cold War came And wiped us off the map Who would've thought I'd die of a heart attack When I had no heart at all? Not really anyway It was all mind over matter And I dreamt of you So what's it going to be? Doors double locked And knobby knees Shaking like I used to When I played you a song I never called you by your name It was never my tongue's to hold But it was inside this empty heart This busted bag of bones
