If My Heart Had a Heart

If my heart had a heart
It would show me some mercy
Wouldn’t be so cold and cruel
No it wouldn’t keep hurtin' me
It wouldn’t make it this hard
It wouldn’t do me this way
It would cut me some slack, have my back
It would give me a break
If my heart had a heart
It would go out and leave me alone
It’d stop havin' a mind of its own
Let me forget you and let me let go
It would stop hangin' on
It would finally put this to rest
Instead of puttin' this stake in my chest
Oh no it wouldn’t tear me apart
If my heart had a heart
It wouldn’t still sing
Every time that I see you
Someone says your name
I wouldn’t still want you
No I’d be okay
If my heart had a heart
It would go out and leave me alone
It’d stop havin' a mind of its own
Let me forget you and let me let go
It would stop hangin' on
It would finally put this to rest
Instead of puttin' this stake in my chest
Oh no it wouldn’t tear me apart
If my heart had a heart, oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
If my heart had a heart
It’d stop breakin' in two
It would stop lovin' you
If my heart had a heart
It would go out and leave me alone
It’d stop havin' a mind of its own
Let me forget you and let me let go
It would stop hangin' on
It would finally put this to rest
Instead of puttin' this stake in my chest
Oh no it wouldn’t tear me apart
If my heart had a heart, oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
If my heart had a heart, mmh
