Lyrics for Remember The Tinman by Tracy Chapman:
| | | Artist: | Tracy Chapman |
| | Album: | New Beginning | | Track: | Remember The Tinman | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 62 | | | | Lyrics: | There are locks on the doors
And chains stretched across all the entries to the inside
There's a gate and a fence
And bars to protect from only God knows what lurks outside
Who stole your heart left you with a space
That no one and nothing can fill
Who stole your heart who took it away
Knowing that without it you can't live
Who
took away the part so essential to the whole
Left you a hollow body
Skin and bone
What robber what thief who stole your heart and the key
Who stole your heart
The smile from your face
The innocence the light from your eyes
Who stole
your heart or did you give it away
And if so then when and why
Who took away the
part so essential to the whole
Left you a hollow body
Skin and bone
What
robber what thief
Who stole your heart and the key
Now all sentiment is gone
Now you have no trust in no one
Who stole your heart
Did you know
but forget the method and moment in time
Was it a trickster using mirrors and sleight of
hand
A strong elixir or a potion that you drank
Who hurt your heart
Bruised
it in a place
That no one and nothing can heal
You've gone to wizards,
princes and magic men
You've gone to witches, the good the bad the indifferent
But
still all sentiment is gone
But still you have no trust in no one
If you can
tear down the walls
Throw your armor away remove all roadblocks barricades
If you
can forget there are bandits and dragons to slay
And don't forget that you defend an empty
space
And remember the tinman
Found he had what he thought he lacked
Remember the tinman
Go find your hear and take it back
Who stole your heart
Maybe no one can say
One day you will find it I pray | | | | Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link | |
