One Heart

By now you’d think I’d write a million songs
Gifts of a wounded heart
But when it comes to you, there’s too much to say
And I never know where to start
Since that day no one had taken your place
No one can fill up the space you left behind
I ask myself, could I ever love again?
And bear another beating of this kind?
Another strike, another ache
How much hurt can one take?
Another fear I cannot shake
Just how much hurt can one heart take?
By now you think I would let you go
That I’d stop dreaming of you at night
But I just can’t stop thinking about
How you walked away without a fight
The words you never said they haunt me
The one’s you did were as sharp as a knife
I ask myself if you ever thought of me
While you were slowly coming back to life
Another strike, another ache
How much hurt can one take?
Another scar, for heaven’s sake
How many times can one heart break?
By now you’d think I’d pick up the phone
And tell you I’ve been feeling so blue
But when it comes to you, there’s too much to say
So much to be said by you
