Lyrics

Lemon
By Ted Horrell

My heart is a lemon
A worn out, clunky thing
It's the one I was given
And trouble is all that it brings
Oh, would I could trade it
For one that would not stop and start
My heart is a lemon
Do you have replacement parts?

My heart is a villain
Cowardly, sniveling and cruel
It's the one I was given
It don't play by the rules
Oh, would I could grasp it
And lock it forever away
My heart is a villain
Do you feel like a hero today?

My heart is a moonscape
Lonely and barren and cold
It's the one I was given
Uninhabitable I am told
Oh, would I could work the land
Into some place where two folks could live
My heart is a moonscape
Do you have a lifetime to give?
