Aim For The Heart (Live)

I'm gonna do something else
This is one I wrote
I called this one "Aim For the Heart"
A little advice my mama gave me

Oh, got a need for attention and I can't keep it to myself
Man said he loved me, but he's off with somebody else
Grand mamma, can you help me? I can't keep a man of my own
He gotta aim for the heart and did me wrong

You can try your best to stay pretty
It might work while you're in your prime
You get jealous of the young ones once your looks start to fade with time
Love is a perfect thing, there's nothing quite so strong, girl
You gotta aim for the heart and you'll never go wrong

(You gotta) aim for the heart
Don't aim for the head
Aim for the heart
That's what mamma said

It's not that easy but when a man crawls under your skin
I thought I didn't need anyone but it made me think again
But all the rules got broken when he came along
He aimed for the heart and he did me wrong

You gotta aim for the heart
Don't aim for the head
Aim for the heart
That's what mamma said

Gotten lonely by myself in the king-sized bed
Tonight, I'm feeling empty
'Cause I can't get him out of my head
If I didn't need him, I could start all over again
She got these blues for a brand-new friend

I got a need for attention and I can't keep it to myself
The man said he loved me but he's given it to someone else
Grand mamma, can you help me? I can't keep a man of my own
You gotta aim for the heart, you'll never, never, go wrong, yeah, yeah

You keep aiming for the heart, baby
You keep aiming for the heart
You keep aiming for the heart, baby
You make a brand-new start
You make a brand-new start
You make a brand-new start
You make a brand-new, brand-new, brand-new, brand-new

You never go wrong
You never go wrong
You never go wrong
You never go wrong
You never go wrong
Never go wrong
You never go wrong, you never go wrong, yeah, yeah

Yeah
Just got laying down for thyself
