You stretched your arm forward and held out your hand I tore out my heart gave it over and waited for you to tear it apart ._   ._   ._   But you took it and placed it on your sleeve although I hoped that maybe you could hide it in a safe and take care of it for me ._   ._   ._   And so there it stays my exposed, beating heart you wear it on your sleeve vulnerable  ._   ._   ._   and you take it with you whenever you leave.

you wear my heart on your sleeve
You stretched your arm forward and held out your hand I tore out my heart gave it over and waited for you to tear it apart ._   ._   ._   But you took it and placed it on your sleeve although I hoped that maybe you could hide it in a safe and take care of it for me ._   ._   ._   And so there it stays my exposed, beating heart you wear it on your sleeve vulnerable  ._   ._   ._   and you take it with you whenever you leave.
I fell in love... And it made me feel vulnerable. More vulnerable than I ever felt in my entire life. It makes me scared. But in a good way, I think. Or at least I hope.
