This heart was almost taken; this heart had a love of its own
E E A B7 E E A B7
This heart was reawakened when you came along

This heart was born feet running; this heart saw your porch light on
E E A B7 E E A B7
This heart hit the sidewalk wondering why you left it on
A(9) A(9) B(4) B(4)
This heart was stranded in the winter
E* E* A(9) A(9)
Was stuck out in a blizzard in its summer clothes

This heart hears the telephone ringing; this heart's gonna let it go
'Cause this heart knows the bells she's hearing aren't the telephone
This heart has heard your laughter; this heart has learned how to smile
This heart'll be a true believer if you'll stay awhile
This heart was stranded in the winter
Was stuck out in a blizzard in its summer clothes
This heart knows when the love comes and when it goes
E E A B7

This heart, this heart, this heart; this heart, this heart, this heart

This heart was stranded in the winter

This heart was almost taken, and this heart was born feet running
This heart hears a telephone ringing, gonna let it go
This heart, this heart, this heart; this heart, this heart, this heart
