HERE'S MY HEART
(Bobby Moncrief / Fred Henley)
as recorded by Bobby Edwards
1962
(I'll take the blame, but you didn't do me right)
Here's my heart, see if you can mend it, (can mend it)
Here are those mem'ries you left. (that you left)
It's a heart that has no love left in it,
But I've no-one to blame but just myself! (no-one to blame, woe woe woe)
I let you fool me with your kisses,
That you gave so warm and tender ev'ry night. (woe woe woe woe)
I didn't know then that you would forget me,
I'll take the blame, but you didn't do me right!
(I'll take the blame, but you didn't do me right)
Here's my dreams, they're the ones you shattered, (you shattered)
Here are those mem'ries you left. (that you left)
I love you, but little my love matters,
But I've no-one to blame but just myself! (no-one to blame, woe woe woe)
I let you fool me with your kisses,
That you gave so warm and tender ev'ry night. (woe woe woe woe)
I didn't know then that you would forget me,
I'll take the blame, but you didn't do me right,
I'll take the blame, but you didn't do me right!
