Another Piece of My Heart
Music & Lyrics by
Martin Tanger
1st Verse
I knew that the highway would run a straight line
Out to an oasis on the fringes of time
Where illusion ends and the truth begins
And cries turn into love songs
And tears of woe douse fiery hearts aglow
2nd Verse
You had all the essentials, your heartbreak credentials in hand
With the eyes of a temptress, you walked like an empress
So tall and so grand
Your gaze would burn holes in those unfortunate souls who dared not believe
And you brought gifts for the giving
Though none were intended for me
Chorus
Now I don’t mind at all
As I trace the steps that led me to stumble and fall
Love won’t find me now
It was a dream that faded fast ,not meant to last
I knew it right from the start
That you would walk away and take another piece of my heart
3rd Verse
So I bid adieu to thoughts of you over time
And my notions of love and devotion stopped on a dime
I’ve got miles to go and my steps are much slower now
But my burden is leaner and my vision is keener somehow
