Saw a man in the movies
That didn't have a heart
How I wish I could give him mine
Then I wouldn't have to feel
It breaking all apart
And this emptiness inside would suit me fine
(|)(Chorus)(|)
It's times like this
I wish I were the tin man
You could hurt me all you wanted
And I'd never even know
Well, I'd give anything
Just to be the tin man
And I wouldn't have a heart
And I wouldn't need a soul
I couldn't see your leaving coming
It took me by surprise
Even now still seems like a dream
But I know I can't be dreaming
Cuz as I lay down each night
The pains so great
That it won't let me sleep
(|)(Repeat Chorus)(|)
Well, I'd give anything
Just to be the tin man
And I wouldn't have a heart
And I wouldn't miss you so
