Píseň: It's Called A Heart

Interpret:
Depeche Mode
Album:
B - Sides
There's something beating here inside my body
and it's called a heart.
You know how easy it is 
to tear it apart
if I lend it to you
will you keep it safe for me
I'll lend it to you
will you treat it tenderly.
There's something beating here inside my body
and it's called a heart.
There's a sun shining in the sky 
but that's not the reason why
I'm feeling warm inside 
the answer isn't classified
it's my heart 
from the moment I started
I tried to be good-hearted
since I tried my best
and more or less 
I spoke from my heart
there's a lot to be learned 
and you learn when your heart gets burned
hearts can never be owned
hearts only come on loan
if I want it back
I will take it back
I'll take my heart
but I will try my best
and more or less
I will speak from my heart
yes,I will speak from my heart
speak from my heart.
