Gary Hughes: Hammer your heart [lyrics]

Gary Hughes

Hammer your heart

I took you for the first time

We were young and fell in love

Oh it should have been so easy

Not easy enough

I never thought you'd hurt me

You were all I waited for

God, I know you used to need me

But not anymore

CHORUS

Now the time has come, your number's taken

Love takes over you and takes control of your heart

Memories from which there's no escaping

Truth's gonna hammer your heart

Are you haunted by the memories

Of the love I tried to save

All I needed was affection

You never gave, babe

You knew how much I loved you

I meant every word I said

But you broke me into pieces

And left me for dead, yeah

CHORUS

You'll cry at night without me

When your heart's a hollow shell

When your lovers ask the reason

You'll never tell

CHORUS
