Heartless
We had our share of heartaches
We just can't see eye to eye
No matter how hard we try
It's like a storm that never dies
Our home spun out of control
It all came crashing down
You walked out that door
I sat right here and never made a sound
I was dumb as a scarecrow
Had no courage as the lion
Heartless as a tin man
Why I let you go, I'll never understand
I know you'll never come home
You left your slippers behind
So many times you tried
You could never melt my wicked side
You cold never melt my wicked side!
I was dumb as a scarecrow
Had no courage as the lion
Heartless as a tin man
Why I let you go, I'll never understand
Here I stand by this brick road
I'll wait for you to pass by
Scarecrow and lion done gone
Just a tin man with a tear in his eye
I was dumb as a scarecrow
Had no courage as the lion
Heartless as a tin man
Why I let you go, I'll never understand
We just can't see eye to eye
No matter how hard we try
It's like a storm that never dies
Our home spun out of control
It all came crashing down
You walked out that door
I sat right here and never made a sound
I was dumb as a scarecrow
Had no courage as the lion
Heartless as a tin man
Why I let you go, I'll never understand
I know you'll never come home
You left your slippers behind
So many times you tried
You could never melt my wicked side
You cold never melt my wicked side!
I was dumb as a scarecrow
Had no courage as the lion
Heartless as a tin man
Why I let you go, I'll never understand
Here I stand by this brick road
I'll wait for you to pass by
Scarecrow and lion done gone
Just a tin man with a tear in his eye
I was dumb as a scarecrow
Had no courage as the lion
Heartless as a tin man
Why I let you go, I'll never understand
