Oh, give me back my heart, my love,
it's the only one I own.
Without it deep inside of me,
I'm lost and all alone.
Now that all is over
and you've found somebody new,
there is just one favor
I must ask of you.
Just this once be good to me
before the teardrops start.
I beg of you, my darling,
give me back my heart.
Oh, give me back my heart, my love,
it's the only one I own.
Without it deep inside of me,
I'm lost and all alone.
I understand just how you feel
and why we have to part,
so understand me as I do you,
give me back my heart.
I remember how we loved
and all the plans we made.
Like the evening sunset,
all our dreams must fade.
I remember oh so well,
it seems like yesterday,
but now that all is over,
there's something I must say.
Oh, give me back my heart, my love,
it's the only one I own.
Without it deep inside of me,
I'm lost and all alone.
I understand just how you feel
and why we have to part,
so understand me as I do you,
give me back my heart—
my heart—
my heart!
