From the recording I’M A TIN WOMAN
Lyrics
Now I know I’ve got a heart, because it’s breaking
You knocked on my door with a velvet plea
But love ain't a gift—it’s a two-way street
I gave you my spark
You gave me the cold
Now my chest is empty
My heart's been sold
I hear your words
They echo sweet
But echoes don’t make me complete
You say you want my heart
But I’m a Tin Woman
Hollow inside from the life you’ve given
Rust in my veins
No oil for the pain
Trying to feel
But it’s all in vain
Your promises flew like a bird uncaged
But wings don't mend what’s been betrayed
I reached for the sun
It burned me dry
Now the tears won’t come
No matter how I try
Your touch is warm
But it fades to gray
A spark won't light where ashes lay
You say you want my heart
But I’m a Tin Woman
Hollow inside from the life you’ve given
Rust in my veins
No oil for the pain
Trying to feel
But it’s all in vain
