I heard you say that words are deadly things And I was surprised to find myself alive and breathing I said I know it’s tough, but I’m growing up And your love it just ain’t good enough So I’m taking back my heart for me
I was lured into every word you speak Yeah when I was young you could tie my tongue and weaken my knees But the lines been drawn and I’m moving on, and another girl will come along So I’m taking back my heart for me
This is the end of the road, this is where we part You can keep all your memories but I’m taking my heart Turns out being away is a wonderful way to be
I’m going back to the earth, back to open doors Back to Beach Boys records and minor 4’s. Cause I’m taking back my heart for me
I heard you say that words are deadly things So I was surprised to find myself alive and breathing I said I know it’s tough, but I’m growing up And your love it just ain’t good enough So I’m taking back my heart Said I’m taking back my heart I’ll be taking back my heart for me.
