If We Sent Our Hearts over Now Songtext

von Sara Hickman

I wore my heart out on my sleeve
But then they shot me down
And they left me here to die
If my last kiss is this cold ground
Will I forgive the hand
That held the gun and took my life away

Can't we take the time of day
To give the world another chance
Can't we learn from our mistakes
We're human after all

If we sent our hearts over now
Would it ease the pain?
If we sent our hearts over now
Would it stop the fighting?

If we sent our hearts over now
Would it be enough to save the world?
Well, I can't believe
I'm the only one who just can't believe
That this is going on

As I sit in my small cell
Counting scratches on the wall
Scratch my head and start to cry
Chained to this solitary hell
I'm about to lose it all
My last words are to myself

Racing back to the fateful day
I took another human life away
Oh, how I've learned from my mistakes
But now I have to pay

If we sent our hearts over now
Would it ease the pain?
If we sent our hearts over now
Would it stop the fighting?

If we sent our hearts over now
Would it be enough to save the world?
Well, I can't believe
I'm the only one who just can't believe
This is going on

Oh, can't we learn from our mistakes?
We're human, after all

I'm held hostage in a land
Where there's no brotherhood of man
No one understands what I say
I just make it through each day
As they let me waste away

Somewhere behind the walls of sand
And my situation is unknown
And my captors rule from a thorny throne
Each night I dream that I? ll soon be home
But I can't sleep tonight

If we sent our hearts over now
Would it ease the pain?
If we sent our hearts over now
Would it stop the fighting?

If we sent our hearts over now
Would it be enough to save the world?
Well, I can't believe
I'm the only one who just can't believe
This is going on

I can't believe it, no, no
I can't believe this is going on
I can't believe it, no, no
I can't believe this is going on

I can't believe it, no, no
I can't believe this is going on
I can't believe it, no, no
I can't believe this is going on

I can't believe it, no, no
I can't believe this is going on
I can't believe it, no, no
I can't believe this is going on
