Lyrics
GIVE ME BACK MY HEART
Bauman/Riggan
©2003 All rights reserved.
You can keep my letters
Do with them whatever you like
I’m not the sentimental type
You can take my Skynard records
My Braves hat, but never believe
You’re gonna get the best of me
Sell it off, pack it up, take whatever you want...just one little thing I need
Give me back, give me back
Baby, give me back my heart (x2)
Well now it don’t take a genius
To see what’s come between us, I know
This ain’t how love’s supposed to go
Don’t want your apology
You can spare your sympathy, I don’t need
A girl who’d ever step out on me
Walk away, wave goodbye, baby I’ll be fine
Just one little thing I need
Give me back, give me back
Baby, give me back my heart (x2)
Now I thought we were forever
It’s not that I am bitter, but I
Can’t picture you with that other guy
I’m not asking for too much
I’ll be happy if you just
Give me back, give me back
Baby, give me back my heart (x2)
