Jack Hardy - You Only Leave Your Heart Once lyrics

All those people who have pieces Of you spread out 'cross the plains Left your heart in Oklahoma Left it lying out in the rain Left your arms in too many places With your eyes as big as fun Calling cards and other traces But you only leave your heart once Can I get it get it back? Can I give it once again? Said this cowboy to his shadow Which was made of wind and of rain When I touch you I feel distance Never know if yours or mine Have I left it has it left me Oh my darling Clementine The blistering heat and the hay down your shirt The barbed wire fences where the greenhorns get hurt At a campfire in Colorado Or a beach on some dark sea A smoke-filled room in El Dorado Singing nearer my god damn to thee Damp leather and faster horses And a south wind bringing rain Too many miles for changing courses Pushing on the point of pain Left your arms in too many places With your eyes as big as guns Calling cards and other traces But you only leave your heart once
