Rag and Bone Shop

I found a rag and bone bag of parts
Brought them to my bench to build me a heart
There was a piece of silk and three bits of steel
A diamond a crutch a ring and a brand new wheel

I held my hammer and turned off the the light
All hearts are made in the darkest of night
She will pulse and will beat when my body is cold
She will fall down in love, rise and will be so bold

Sparks were flying my eyes how they burned!
(A heart's not a gift, it is made, it is earned)
I pray to the god's, be it strong, be it weak
Let it love, let it learn, let is sing let is speak!

In the dark I gave form to the parcel of parts
Steel was wrapped in the silk from the start
And the crutch was enclosed with the diamond and ring
And the wheel kept it turning 'till I held a heart that could sing

Heart's don't know what they are or why
They are ours and we just don't mind
To hide behind them
Do you live in your heart or does it love in you?
Do you sing and see things through?

So I heaved up my heart into body so dear
And I saw what I felt, was it love? Was it fear?
Then the blood of the pump gave a meaning to sight
And the world was an army of love and the Light!

So I ran from the shop empty bag in my hand
A line inside from a man to a man
Just a gesture, a word saying, "here is your seed"
A diamond, crutch, ring and wheel is all you need

Heart's don't know what they are or why
They are ours and we just don't mind
To hide behind them
Do you live in your heart or does it love in you?
Do you sing and see things through?
