Remember the Tinman
There are locks on the doors and chains stretched across all the entries to the inside.
There's a gate and a fence and bars to protect from only god knows what lurcks outside.
Who stole your heart, left you with a space that no one and nothing can fill, Who stole your heart, Who took it away knowing that without it you can't live.
Who took away the part so essential to the whole left you a hollow body, skin and bone.
What robber? What thief?
Who stole your heart and the key. Who stole your heart, the smile from your face, the innocence, the light from your eyes?
Who stole your heart or did you give it away, and if so then when and why?Who took away the part so essential to the whole, left you a hollow body, Skin and bone?.What robber? What thief?Who stole your heart and the key, now all sentiment is gone. Now you have no trust in no one.Who stole your heart? Did you know but forget the method and moment in time?Was it a trickster using mirrors and sleight of hand?A strong elixir or a potion that you drank?Who hurt your heart?Brousied it in a place that no one and nothing can heal.You've gone to wizards, princes,and magic men, You've gone to witches,The good, the bad, the indifferent, But still all sentiment is gone, but still you have no trust in no one.
If you can tear down the walls, Throw your armor away, Remove all roadblocks barricades. If you can forget there are bandits and dragons to slay and don't forget that you defend and empty space. REMEMBER the TINMAN found he had what he thought he lacked. Remember the Tinman, Go find your heart, and take it back.Maybe no one can say, One day you will find it I pray.
Song written by Tracy Chapman.
