Song #28 Week #28 - 2012 Song A Week Challenge

Week #28 - Another song with heart in the title. I think that is permitted. Springsteen "Nebraska" vibe on this one.







Be gentle with my heart
It's open and exposed
And my head can't make any sense
Of the actions it has proposed

Be gentle with my heart
I've been through the wars
Do i dare relive the sadness
that once darkened my door


Be gentle with my heart
I've given you the key
It's been locked now for so long
A lonesome detainee

Be gentle with my heart
I trust it in your hands
If you must hurt me please take it slow
No violent reprimands


be gentle with my heart
it belongs to you
and wherever time will take us
I will always tell the truth

be gentle with my heart
it's the only one i've got
Don't know if I can make you love me
But I'll give it my best shot
