The Tin Man

[Verse 1]

Saw a man in the movies that didn't have a heart

How I wish I could give him mine

Then I wouldn't have to feel it breaking all apart

And this emptiness inside would suit me fine

[Chorus]

It's times like these I wish I were a tin man

You could hurt me all you wanted and I'd never even know

I'd give anything just to be the tin man

And I wouldn't have a heart and I wouldn't need a soul

[Verse 2]

I couldn't see your leaving coming

You took me by surprise

Even now it still seems like a dream

But I know I can't be dreaming

'Cause as I lay down each night

The pain so great that it won't let me sleep

[Chorus]

It's times like these I wish I were a tin man

You could hurt me all you wanted and I'd never even know

I'd give anything just to be the tin man

And I wouldn't have a heart and I wouldn't need a soul

[Outro]

Well, I'd give anything just to be the tin man

And I wouldn't have a heart and I wouldn't miss you so
