(Shelly Peiken) I hear you calling from the street Outside my window You keep returning Just to tell me that you're gone No need to keep repeating Old words lose their meaning If you can't stay away You don't mean what you say You carry your heart No one can hold All of that weight on their shoulders You carry your heart When it gets cold You run to me You can't carry you heart alone When I told you that I'd wished You'd stay forever Did it make it harder, to remain Now you lock my love inside you Run for cover, but you can't hide Closin your mind to the love you leave behind You carry your heart , no one can hold All of that weight on their shoulders you carry your heart when it gets cold you run to me See you can't carry your heart Carry your heart Everytime you need a hand to hold you'll have to give it up To get it back You'll have to trust me long enough to know, I'll never let it go You carry your heart, no one can hold All that weight on their shoulders You carry your heart When it gets cold, you run to me You can't carry your heart alone
