You And Your Heart So Blue

(album: Writing On The Wall - 1986)

You levelled all your guns against me
You shot me down and ran me to the ground
An' so I hung around
You said that you were just a dreamer
But in every dream you had I could be found
In love it's hard to believe
That roses die and moonlight doesn't last forever
God knows I tried… I gave all my love to you

You and your heart so blue
I did everything that a man can do
I cried when you wanted me to
And I lied in the night to see it through
For you and your heart so blue

I'm not afraid of dice or danger
You learn a lot of lessons on the street
I've felt the heat
But when without a word of warning
The dream came down and it knocked me off my feet
And I cried and I cried
When roses die and moonlight doesn't last forever
God knows I tried… I gave all my love to you

You and your heart so blue
I did everything that a man can do
I cried when you wanted me to
And I lied in the night to see it through
For you and your heart so blue

Given all the love you needed
Everything you ever wanted
Will you ever learn to fly
You're the one with all the questions
Looking for the easy answers
Will you ever get it right… enough for you

You and your heart so blue
I did everything that a man can do
I cried when you wanted me to
And I lied in the night to see it through
For you and your heart so blue
