I Met a Man Who Had No Heart

I Met A Man Who Had No Heart

I met a man who had no heart

Inside his manly chest

There was no organ pumping blood

Or beating in his breast.

Oh, he was normal, all in all

From outside looking in

From head to toe you wouldn't know

The void so hidden then.

He smiled at me and I smiled back

And his smiles seemed to me, gold

But later on it dawned on me

That all his smiles were cold.

His lips, they said the lovely things

A woman loves to hear

But no comfort gave me in the dark

But only brought me fear.

So innocent, I gave my love

And he took it and departed

I met a man who had no heart

And who left me broken hearted.
