I hear you calling from the street

Outside my window

You keep returning

Just to tell me that you're gone

No need to keep repeating

Old words lose their meaning

If you can't stay away

You don't mean what you say

You carry your heart

No one can hold

All of that weight on their shoulders

You carry your heart

When it gets cold

You run to me

You can't carry you heart alone

When I told you that I'd wished

You'd stay forever

Did it make it harder, to remain

Now you lock my love inside you

Run for cover, but you can't hide

Closin your mind to the love you leave behind

You carry your heart , no one can hold

All of that weight on their shoulders

you carry your heart

when it gets cold you run to me

See you can't carry your heart

Carry your heart

Everytime you need a hand to hold

you'll have to give it up

To get it back

You'll have to trust me long enough

to know, I'll never let it go

You carry your heart, no one can hold

All that weight on their shoulders

You carry your heart

When it gets cold, you run to me

You can't carry your heart alone
