Hearts And All


You give her your kiss and your attention
And she gives your her cold cold shoulder
Good times are few, too few to mention
Still your plans are just to hold her

And I don’t understand your wanting her
When she’ll never appreciate
It’s such a compliment you hunting her
I guess this situation must be my fate

Cause I’ve been downtown up against the wall
And I’m watching you walk around up against the wall
And the weatherman told me soon is gonna fall
Hearts and all up against the wall

You penciled in her name and number
That should make it easier to forget
She doesn’t call and then you wonder
If your eraser leaves no regret

But can she look you in the eye
When she finally lets you in
Satisfaction is a white lie
You can’t quit and I can’t win

Cause I’ve been downtown up against the wall
Watching you walk around up against the wall
And the weatherman told me soon is gonna fall
Hearts and all up against the wall

It’s my heart and it’s your heart and nevermind her heart
Raining down continually
Miles and miles of walls in this city
Won’t you come closer, come closer to me

And I don’t understand you wanting her
When she’ll never appreciate
Oh it’s such a compliment you hunting her
I guess this situation must be my fate

Cause I’ve been downtown up against the wall
Watching you walk around up against the wall
And the weatherman told me soon is gonna fall
Hearts and all
Up against the wall
It’s gonna be my heart, your heart
Hearts and all
