Hearts

© 2016 Mark Cote

Got the call today
I hope you're sitting down
the one you loved
is not around
what you didn't know
now is real
lost in the wind
is how you feel

hard to relate
feel so alone
the wrong words
and the wrong tones
what's done is done
can't you see
as I pick up
what's left of me

(chorus) hearts.... keep on breaking
                  hearts.... are you forsaking
                  hearts.... keep pretending
                  hearts.... keep on bending
                  when it's real what's inside
                  it's your heart you are mending

find something in you
you know is true
and let it grow
wash over you
best it heals
what's broke inside
than retreat to
the depths of cold you'll hide

(chorus)
