Analysis of Your Heart



It seems so strange how in one day you gave
your heart away.
Saying how much love you have and how true
you will be for all eternity.
It seems so strange how in one day you gave
your heart away.
To a complete stranger who you have known for
only a day.
The sun went down and the moon came up.
We both said we could never have enough.
But somewhere between night and day your love
faded away.
It seems so strange how in one day you gave
your heart away.
But always knowing deep inside your love was
meant the wrong way.
