Her love was genuine
She saved it all for her man,
Not for a rainy day.
But she learned quickly
When he held another girl's hand
She had been left to say
"This ol' heart of mine, this worthless heart of mine...
This ol' heart of mine, this worthless heart of mine..."
She trys to display
A face filled not with tears and dismay
But he took her heart away.
She wonders how many times
This hopeless pyscho will turn
Before a brighter day.
Bring back the sunshine, the wine, and the roses,
For her it has taken so long.
She pleads for relief and when no end's in sight
She's left singing the saddest of songs...
"This ol' heart of mine, this worthless heart of mine...
This ol' heart of mine, this worthless heart of mine..."
Wipe all those tears away, don't give up yet
Some day you'll look back and laugh.
All those bad memories that you'll soon forget
Will just fade like an old photograph.
Don't cry.
This ol' heart of mine...
This ol' heart of mine...
This ol' heart of mine, tell me no more lies.
This ol' heart of mine, tell me no more lies.
