If I Had A Heart

If I had a heart I would love you
If I had a voice I would voice I would say
I'd promise you the stars up above you
Promise you my gold diamond ring

And we sing
Oooh, ooh, Ohh, oh, oh
Ohhhh, ohh, oh, oh

And we sing
Oooh, ooh, Ohh, oh, oh
Ohhhh, ohh, oh

[Blinding Lyrics]

It seems that I had been held
In some dreaming state
A tourist in the waking world
Never quite awake

And no kiss, no gentle word
Can wake me from this slumber
Until I realized
That it was you who held me under

Felt it in my fist, in my feet, in the hollows of my eyelids
Shaking through my skull, through my spine
And down through my ribs

No more dreaming the dead
As if death itself was undone
No more calling like a crow
For a boy, for a body in the garden
No calling like a crow
So in love, so in love
No more dreaming like a girl
So in love, so in love
No more dreaming like a girl
So in love with with the wrong world

And I could here the thunder
And see the lightening crack
And all around the world was waking
I never could go back
'Cause all the walls of dreaming
They were torn wide open
And finally it seems
That the spell was broken

And all my bones began to shake
My eyes flew open
And all my bones began to shake
My eyes flew open

No more dreaming the dead
As if death itself was undone
No more calling like a crow
For a boy, for a body in the garden
No more dreaming like a girl
So in love, so in love
No more dreaming like a girl
So in love, so in love
No more dreaming like a girl
So in love with with the wrong world

Snow White stitching up the circuit board
Synapse slipping through the hidden door
Snow White stitching up the circuit board

No more dreaming the dead
As if death itself was undone
No more calling like a crow
For a boy, for a body in the garden
No more dreaming like a girl
So in love, so in love
No more dreaming like a girl
So in love, so in love
No more dreaming like a girl
So in love with with the wrong world

Snow White stitching up the circuit board
Synapse slipping through the hidden door
Snow White stitching up the circuit board
Synapse slipping
