Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Maybe the hardest thing I've ever done was to walk away from you
Leavin' behind the life that we'd begun, I split myself in two
[Verse 2]
Proud and alone, cold as a stone
Rollin' down that hill into the night
I could see the surprise and the hurt in your eyes
They're behind each flashing city light
Love needs a heart, and I need to find if love needs a heart like mine
[Verse 3]
Love won't come near me, she don't even hear me
She walks by my vacancy sign
(And love) And love needs a heart, (A heart) trusting and blind
(And love) I wish that heart was mine
[Verse 4]
Proud and alone, cold as a stone
I'm afraid to believe the things I feel
I can cry with the best, I can laugh with the rest
But I'm never sure when it's real
[Verse 5]
And it may be the hardest thing I've ever done
(And love, and I, and love)
But apart from all that I hope to find
Where's the heart that's been lookin' for mine?
I hope it finds me in time
[Verse 6]
(Hey Love, a heart, hey Love)
Love needs a heart, and I need to find if love needs a heart like mine
