lyrics

If I had a good heart I hope it would be good
yesterday, today, and tomorrow,
but in your eyes, it twists and it lies
til it's an instrument of cruelty and sorrow.

I feel it beat inside, I feel it keeping time
with the breath that brings me life, pulling in the oxygen.
How can it be a bad thing, when my heart keeps beating,
bringing the inspiration that makes the air worth breathing, breathing,
breathing, breathing

if I had a good heart I'd be there for you
you could call me up and I'd be at your door
sometimes I’d think of you and do something just because
but you don't believe in my heart anymore

I feel it beat inside, I feel it keeping time
with the breath that brings me life, pulling in the oxygen.
How can it be a bad thing, when my heart keeps beating,
bringing the inspiration that makes the air worth breathing, breathing,
breathing, breathing, breathing, breathing

if I had a good heart, if I had a good heart...
