Jon Fratelli - Give Me My Heart Back MacGuire lyrics

These pale blue lights cover me so
Close that I can see
They're a mirror, oh nothing's how it seems
I walk slow down through the crowds
In their fake leather shrouds
To the corner lost in paper dreams

I could have sworn I saw you
By the door with a painter
She said she's not there you never
Cared for her did you?
I fell from the stage with a thunder
Tricked by desire you've got the rest of me
Give me my heart back MacGuire

Those cold red eyes that you see me through
Won't tell you whether I'm lying
But maybe that's just as well
Cause if this is all your living for
Baby you're on step from dying
And only time will tell

Begging me please, you played that old tease
Like an artist i sold the clothes on my back
Just to keep you in rags
Now that you're perfectly sweet
Like a sadist, oh you're stranger than fire
You got my innocence
Give me my heart back MacGuire

The city's in bloom I'm lost in
This room by the window
Neon sign lullabies float in
The blue evening haze
You hid me away like a shadow
Only yours to acquire

You've seen your best days now
Give me my heart back MacGuire
They don't need you no more
Give me my heart back MacGuire
You've got the rest of me
Give me my heart back MacGuire
