Straight From The Heart Lyrics

Here it is coming straight from the heart

Who's gonna be your friend when I depart

I'm a poor boy with no ties

On me there sure ain't no flies

Don't ask what I feel inside

She asked me and I couldn't lie

Don't know what I came here for

Now I'm walking through that door

Here it is coming straight from the heart

Who's gonna be your friend when I depart

I've been around here and there

Don't pay heed to my thin hair

I tried but I just can't go on

I know you'll be shocked that I've gone

Roots tangle as they grow

This has been one hell of a show

Here it is coming straight from the heart

Who's gonna be your friend when I depart

When you wake up alone

In that cold empty home

When I take all of my clothes

Well Babe, that's how it goes

Here it is coming straight from the heart

Who's gonna be your friend when I depart

There's a train that leaves at dawn

When you wake up with a yawn

Turn on the light, read my note

There won't be much that I wrote

I don't need to write I love you

Just this bird can't be caged he's flew

Here it is coming straight from the heart

Who's gonna be your friend when I depart

When you wake up alone

In that cold empty home

When I take all of my clothes

Well Babe, that's how it goes

Here it is coming straight from the heart

Who's gonna be your friend when I depart
