I Gave Up My Eyes To A Man Who Was Blind

And I gave all my strength to a man who was tired

I gave my desire to a man with more fire

And I lost my good looks to a girl I admired

I lent out my voice to a small group of choir boys

And I gave up my hands to a man who made toys

And all that I kept was the heart in my chest

And I hoped that someday I could give it away

But before my chance came, you broke it in two

But if you had just asked, I would've given it to you

I went to great lengths for a cause that was spent

And I lost all my friends to a lack of commitment

I gave my best clothes to a man who proposed

To a woman I loved, but I didn't really know

And all I have left is the heart in my chest

And I'd give it to you if I thought you'd be impressed

But what would you do with a heart split in two?

And a heart that won't work is of no use to you

So I laid my heart down in a box in the ground

And I threw on some earth, and I tried to forget

That a heart that won't work is not even worth

A glimpse of your smile or an hour of your time

A heart that won't work, it's not even worth

A glimpse of your smile or an hour of your time
