The Wailin Jennys - This Heart Of Mine
 

The Wailin Jennys - This Heart Of Mine


If all is fair in love and war

I haven't seen the score

But it can't be either of those


And all this time thought I was in control

But fate she held her own

Even when I thought I chose


Now the coldest day of winter

Has made a home of my heart

It burns a cold right through me

Tearing me apart


When did I lose you?

It feels like such a crime

When did I lose all

The reasons for this rhyme

So many questions burning

In this heart of mine


A thousand memories

Of when and where

Four walls and a rocking chair

Our story sticking to my skin


A dusty wind

Blows through this broken frame

Echoes of your name

Shadows fall and night pours in


Now the coldest day of winter

Has made a home of a heart

Says it plans to stay forever

Just like you did at the start


When did I lose you?

It feels like such a crime

When did I lose all

The reasons for this rhyme

So many questions burning

In this heart of mine


Now the coldest day of winter

Is here and here to stay

And it burns a cold right through me

'Round the heart you threw away


When did I lose you?

It feels like such a crime

When did I lose all

The reasons for this rhyme

So many questions burning

In this heart of mine
