Heart Thief
Heart Thief
O pardons me! Where are you going?
My heart is in your hands
seem as if you want to place it on a stand,
I know you always had a plan.
Thou heart thief why'd you have to be so brief
In spite of my pain and grief
You stood like an altered beast
at the foot of the praying priest
asking for relieve of your lies and self-loving deeds
devoted with my body and soul I
plead to you for mercy, my heart so pure and true
has left me helpless and blue.
You steal my heart, which was once yours.
I had loved you to the depth, breadth and height
yet you break crush and crumble
The eternal love I had for you.
Heaven forbid this can't be right, I yearned-for thee
And dream of thee, I love thee then
But now I'll be your friend.
You spread your wings over the spurious sky
and soar, then steal the stars from Heaven
You are so darned brave.
They should name you Dave
return my heart to me,
You heart thief.
