Karaoké Never Give All The Heart Smash

As a girl I lived in a million homes

So I always would keep to myself

And my lessons were learned from the stories and poems

I would steal from a library shelf

Yes the books like the rooms weren't mine to keep

But the words weren't left behind

And I think of them all now and I can't sleep and a poet who read my mind

As the wise man once wrote never give all the heart

Well it's easy to see he was writing for me

I just wish

I could play that part

Yes he scribbled that love isn't worth thinking of

That it fades out from kiss to kiss

If I just learn those lines well just think of the misery I'd miss

As the Irishman said don't put your heart up to play

When he warned of the cost and the heart that he lost

Mister Yeats really paved the way

For the men that I've known who have clearly shown

They've been reading him from the start

'Cos when it comes to me well their kisses come free they never give all the heart

When he warned of the cost and the heart that he lost

Mister Yeats really paved the way

For the men that I've known well they've clearly shown

They've been reading him from the start

'Cos each time that I fall they never give all the heart

Mmh mmh mmh mmh mmh
