Magnetic Fields - I Think I Need A New Heart

Time stands still
All I can feel is the time standing still
As you put down the keys
And say, "don't call me please"
While the radio plays

I think I need a new heart, oh oh
I think I need a new heart, oh oh

You've lied, too
But it's a sin that I
Can't tell the truth
'Cause it all comes out wrong
Unless I put it in a song
So the radio plays

I think I need a new heart
Just for you
I think I need a new heart

'Cause I always say, "I love you"
When I mean, "turn out the light"
And I say, "let's run away"
When I just mean, "stay the night"
But the words you want to hear
You will never hear from me
I'll never say "happy anniversary"
Never stay to say "happy anniversary"

So I think I need a new heart, oh oh
I think I need a new heart, oh oh
I think I need a new heart, oh oh
I think I need a new heart, oh oh

Give me time
