~*~ Paper Hearts ~*~
~*~
If I had a paper heart
I would set it free
Then my heart would be dismissed from any feelings of pain
A little tear could be taped and wrinkles could be ironed out
Into the wind I would send my heart
Blowing away loves suffering and heartache
I could replace this heart with another one
I would just cut it out of paper
To start over from day one
But could a paper heart truly feel the way I do?
I think I would rather keep my heart
Accepting the trials it has been through
It has served a life time
Seeing love and pain that has come and gone
It also holds a special spot for each of my once true loves
I would never want a paper heart that could easily be replaced
One that would let the memories of my unforgotten loves
go blowing in the wind

Whispers of a breeze
Whisk away my heart's sorrows
Your enchanting love
Captivates my inner soul
Freeing my spirit to dance
