[00:01.27]As a girl, I lived in a million homes
[00:05.04]So I always would keep to myself
[00:09.34]And my lessons were learned
[00:11.15]From the stories and poems
[00:13.77]I would steal from a library shelf
[00:17.42]
[00:18.63]Yes, the books like the rooms
[00:20.55]Weren't mine to keep
[00:23.75]But the words were left behind
[00:29.38]And I think of them all now when I can't sleep
[00:35.25]And a poet who read my mind
[00:42.61]
[00:44.62]As the wise men once wrote
[00:47.65]Never give all the heart
[00:54.43]Well, it's easy to see
[00:57.03]He was writing for me
[00:59.31]I just wish I could play that part
[01:04.33]
[01:05.11]Yes, he scribbled that love isn't worth thinking of
[01:10.09]That is fades out from kiss to kiss
[01:15.33]If I'd just learned those lines
[01:17.78]Well, just think of the misery I'd missed
[01:23.54]
[01:24.94]As the Irish men said
[01:28.35]Don't put your heart up to play
[01:34.26]When he warned of the cost
[01:36.64]And the heart that he lost
[01:38.94]Mister Yeats really paved the way
[01:43.12]
[01:43.88]For the men that I've known
[01:46.51]Who have clearly shown
[01:49.65]They've been reading him from the start
[01:54.41]'Cause when it comes to me
[01:57.45]Well, their kisses come free
[02:01.75]But they never give all the heart
[02:08.71]
[02:18.38]When he warned of the cost
[02:20.04]And the heart that he lost
[02:22.53]Mister Yeats really paved the way
[02:26.92]
[02:27.39]For the men that I've known
[02:30.07]Well, they've clearly shown
[02:33.95]They've been reading him from the start
[02:39.54]'Cause each time that I fall
[02:44.17]They never give all the heart
[02:53.13]
[02:55.49]MmmmmmMmmm....
