Just A Heart

(album: 10 For Slim: Charley Crockett Sings James Hand - 2021)

I'm sorry if my little gift was not for you
Because I know you like things shiny and brand new
But in a little, a little while when all your presents are out of style
Look at the gift, the gift I've given you

It's just my heart, just my heart that's all I gave you
God's work of art, my most precious part now it's your slave
It is precious, sweet, and true, it once was mine now it all belongs to you
Just a heart, just my heart that's all I gave

Now as the years go quickly by
And the tears they fill your eyes and you find there's nobody who really cares
If you will just look about then you must have no doubt
That my heart, my heart will still be there

It's just my heart, just my heart that's all I gave you
God's work of art, my most precious part it's your slave
It is precious, sweet, and true it was once mine now it all belongs to you
Just a heart, just my heart, that's all I gave
