If you fail to give me love
Don’t think that I would die
I’d go the nearest grocery store
And a whole kilogram I would buy
If you fail to give me love
Don’t think that I would mind
I’d go to the nearest grocery store
Or any other I can find
If you fail to give me love
I won’t feel less of a man
I’d go to the nearest grocery store
Find the best deal that I can
If you fail to give me love
Leave me without a care
I’d go to the nearest grocery store
You can get everything in there
Do different hearts ache differently?
My heart aches! Oh boy it aches!
Like a poke of a hundred pins
Like a skin pierced by a lion’s claw
Like a stab from a sharp dagger
It aches! Yes it aches in many ways!
Like landing on your head from a fall
Like dislocating your knee
Like being crushed by a heavy stone
Yes it aches like that
Does your heart ache like mine?
Does it even ache?
Does it ache all the time?
How does your heart ache?
Life was charming, full of ease
Until my heart gave a lease
Made room for another human being
Though my mind was disagreeing
That person stayed but for a while
I lost my ability to smile
My young heart knows but one cure
To bring a new love through the door
