Play My Heart Lyrics - Barbara J Hunt

Play My Heart

They spent a long time thinking about it
Decided “Why not dare,
You’re gonna die anyway?”

So the girl goes out in her new black shoes
And the boy goes out in his new white shirt
In his new, white shirt

Singing “I wanna play my heart
I wanna play my heart
I wanna play my heart”

A little while later, another decision
The same again: “Why not dare?
You didn’t die last time
And all things are possible”

So the saints move out
And the beasts move in
And it makes no difference
To the state the place is in
To the state the place is in

Singing “I wanna play my heart
I wanna play my heart
Oh I wanna play my heart”

It’s not the flying - it’s the landing:
Coming down to the ground

So the saints move out
And the beasts move in
And it makes no difference....

So the girl goes out in her new black shoes
And the boy goes out in his new white shirt
In his new, white shirt

Singing “I wanna play my heart
I wanna play my heart
Oh I wanna play my heart” (x2)
