I poured my heart into a song, And I'm afraid the words I chose are not so smart; I couldn't think of clever things to say in my song, I had to say it with my heart. If it's never played On the hit parade, It will still contain a heart that is beating true. If it's not a hit I won't mind a bit, Long as it conveys a love that I bear for you. Oh, here is my heart wrapped in a song, And if you take it please don't tear my song apart, For if you do you won't be just destroying a song, You will be tearing up my heart.
