Paperclip My Heart
Paperclip My Heart
I think we're all a little crazy
letting others bring us down
you're fine but I'm crying
my role is always the clown
yeah men treat me bad
always breaking my heart
I think of all the loves I've had
and how innocent they seemed at the start
so the next time I meet a man
and start to fall in love again
I'll pull out a paperclip heart
and pin it to my chest instead
paperclip my heart
since love is so temporary
paperclip my heart
treat it like a sanctuary
I'm always falling down and getting hurt
just like a little child
I was never taught to fear love
the Lord put His purity in my heart
I've never understood why people hate
they hit, they cheat, they want to hurt me
when all I ever did was try to love them
their love turns to hate and then they leave
I want a man to love me
as much as I love him
to take a vow and mean it
and always treat me like his queen
paperclip my heart
since love is so temporary
paperclip my heart
treat it like a sanctuary
