The Magnetic Fields - I Think I Need a New Heart lyrics

Time stands still
All I can feel is the time standing still
As you put down the keys
And say, "Don't call me, please, "
While the radio plays

"I Think I Need a New Heart", oh
"I Think I Need a New Heart", oh

You've lied, too
But, it's a sin that I can't tell the truth
'Cause it all comes out wrong
Unless I put it in a song so the radio plays

"I Think I Need a New Heart", just for you
"I Think I Need a New Heart"

'Cause, I always say, "I love you"
When I mean turn out the light
And I say, "Let's run away"
When I just mean stay the night


But the words you want to hear
You will never hear from me
I'll never say "Happy anniversary"
Never stay to say "Happy anniversary"

So I think I need a new heart, oh
I think I need a new heart, oh
I think I need a new heart, oh
I think I need a new heart, oh

Give me time
