"Just A Heart" lyrics

"Just A Heart"

I'm sorry if my little gift was not for you
Because I know you like things shiny and brand new
But in a little, a little while
When all your dresses
Go out of style
Look at the gift, the gift I've given you

It's just my heart, just my heart
That's all I gave
God's work of art, my most precious part
Now it's your slave
It is precious, sweet and new
It once was mine, now it all belongs to you
Just my heart, just my heart
That's all I gave

Now as the years speed quickly by
And the tears they fill your eyes
And you find you have no one who will care
Well if you just look about
Then you must have no doubt
That my heart, oh my heart's still beating there

It's just my heart, just my heart
That's all I gave
God's work of art, my most precious part
Now it's your slave
It is precious, sweet and new
It once was mine, now it all belongs to you
Just my heart, just my heart
That's all I gave
Well just my heart, just my heart
That's all I gave
