If I Only Had a Heart Lyrics

When a man's an empty kettle
He should be on his mettle
And yet I'm torn apart
Just because I'm presumin'
That I could be a human
If I only had a heart
I'd be tender, I'd be gentle
And awful sentimental
Regarding love and art
I'd be friends with the sparrows

And the boy who shoots the arrows
If I only had a heart
Picture me a balcony
Above a voice sings below
Wherefore art thou, Romeo?
I hear a beat
Oh, so sweet!
Just to register emotion, jealousy, devotion
And really feel the part
I could stay young and chipper
And I'd lock it with a zipper
If I only had a heart
If I only had a heart
If I only had a heart
If I only had a heart
