Game of Hearts

We met each other 
We get each other 

I fell hard for you – massive heart attack 
Then you fell out – give me my heart back?

Since you’ve departed,
I’ve been brokenhearted

Is there an elixir? 
Is there a fixer?

I’m like the Tin Man
Stuck and can’t win, man

I’m like the man of tin
Stuck and just can’t win

Cupid gave us a shot
Somehow, it landed not

Cupid, won’t you please deliver 
Another arrow from your quiver?

Or get my heart back
Give my best part back?

Neither CPR nor a monitor work 
Because I always fall for the worst jerk

Guess I need a heart transplant 
Or some new brains, even a scant

Better taste, new heart, some brains 
Maybe I’ll have a chance again
