Somebody Tell My Heart

from Sterling Pieces by Schweitzer

/

lyrics

My heart and I aren’t talking
It blames only me
We both dream alone at night
And we used to love to watch her dream

I can’t get through to tell it
It hears what it wants
And it’s been beating so hard for so long and so loud that it can’t hear me crying
and trying so hard… to explain

there just isn’t anything we can do
It’s too plain
No complexity to get lost in
She just isn’t part of our world
She just isn’t part of our world
There was so much more to it, it wasn’t my fault
I understand that but somebody tell my heart

Love isn’t just a game now
I once thought it was
But living without her has gotten so old
And breathing without her is just breathing dust

My lungs are empty
Like New Year’s balloons in March
It’s just that I’m tired of trying I don’t have the strength to get through
and my heart has lost the heart… to believe

there just isn’t anything we can do
It’s too plain
No complexity to get lost in
She just isn’t part of our world
She just isn’t part of our world

There just isn’t anything we can do
It’s too plain
No complexity to get lost in
She just isn’t part of our world
She just isn’t part of our world
There was so much more to it, it wasn’t my fault
I understand that but somebody tell my heart

It’s nobody’s fault
I understand that but somebody tell my heart
Somebody tell my heart

I chose to use my surname, "Schweitzer," for practical reasons, realizing long ago that pronouncing "Richard Schweitzer" was difficult. "Schweitzer Projects" under the "tindog music & stuff" umbrella is producing songs in the Pop / Pop rock or folk categories ... more
