Bleeding Hearts
Tara Alvey

They used to hold such charm for me
The most delicate and precious in all the garden wide
The bleeding hearts, you see.

Yes I used to play a princess and be
The one to break and never hide
They used to hold such charm for me.

Away up high and in the tree
In my leafy castle I would rule and ride
The bleeding hearts, you see.

Then suddenly, it was no longer pretend to me
And in no one could I confide
They used to hole such charm for me.

But then he broke my heart, the he
And to the childish fancies I could no longer abide;
The bleeding hearts, you see.

Yes not the flowers speak of something else to me
A world that is cruel and now, no so wide
The bleeding hearts, you see
They used to hold such charm for me.
