Once upon a time your eyes could see You had X-ray vision when it came to you and me Now I keep my hand against my vest But I love you baby, why get so obsessed? That's what tears us apart If I had a heart, a heart of gla** Would you feel satisfied, I'd have no place to hide? With a heart, a heart of gla** Then I'd be fragile too, I'd shatter just like you Would you want me to? One day, I might throw away this shield Then you might realize something's are best left unrevealed I wonder if you cry or if you laugh Would you see me hold with just my empty hat The most pitiful part If I had a heart, a heart of gla**
Would you keep me with care or would you leave me there? With my heart, my heart of gla** Tumbling off your ledge, who'd want a jagged edge Of a heart of gla** Babe, love's such a delicate art If I had a heart, a heart of gla** Would you feel satisfied if you could see inside? Of my heart, my heart of gla** Would you keep me around or would you let me down? With my heart, my heart of gla** Shattered at your feet, would I be obsolete? With my heart, my heart of gla** Who'd be your right for you, wouldn't you want me to? But what would I do with a heart of gla**?
