This heart of mine, why does it ache so? br It is so filled with hurt and bitterness br of the past and present br It's so lonely for true love br Love that's real br Love that's giving br For what is right or what is wrong br I don't know br This heart of mine often tells me br but not this time br For the hurt and bitterness is too great br This heart of mine br Is it big or is it small? br Is this heart of mine beating too fast br or too slow? br You see! br This heart of mine has a deep wound that will br probably never heal without tender love and carebr br Elizabeth Ann Harrisonbr br
