If You Had A Heart To Break

(album: Barefoot In The Head - 2017)

To a broken man you gave assistance
Only to tank while the patient was in pain
Love as cruel ambition
It's like a three legged dog
Left out shivering in the rain

If you had a heart to break, I might find a tear to cry
Too easy to call it a mistake, too hard to know it was a lie

In my moment of need our glass ran empty
And I found time is far past on
You were somewhere else
With someone different
Same cold eyes, in brand new clothes

If you had a heart to break, I might find a tear to cry
Too easy to call it a mistake, too hard to know it was a lie

Buttons, bibles and strings and all that charity brings
And all that charity brings
Could've been, could've been any little thing

Well you have held the will, and you've held ransom
For all the idols, that you have defamed
Well the last time I saw you, you called me handsome
Now I know, oh you just couldn't remember my name

If you had a heart to break (If you had a heart to break)
I might find a tear to cry
Too easy to call it a mistake (If you had a heart to break)
Too hard to know it was a lie
If you had a heart to break (If you had a heart to break)
I might find a tear to cry
Too easy to call it a mistake (If you had a heart to break)
Too hard to know it was a lie, yeah
