bless ur heart

When I give these books away
 Will my ink betray me?
 Will my stories resist wings and grow feet
 And convince me that I'm boasting?
 Or will my psalms seek the company of lonely breaths?
 Will they inspire subtle lovers to kiss with mouths
 They don't have yet?
 Boy, whoever reads about how much I adore you
 I hope my words bring them something new
 Something new
 Ooh child, bless your heart
 Keep a tender heart
 Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, heart
 Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, heart
 With you, I can empty myself of all my rivers
 And become a remarkable sky
 How could I keep these love documents to myself?
 How could I restrict what's given me life?
 Today, I'll find a kind and burrowing creature
 That can carry these pages until browned
 He'll recite the details of your love with his family
 And what was once a whisper will become a deep rumbling sound
 Ooh child, bless your heart
 Keep a tender heart (I'll keep a tender heart)
 Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, heart
 Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, heart
 Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, heart (oh, I'll keep a tender heart)
 Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, heart
 Boy, thank you for showing me how to be gentle, ooh-ooh (heart)
 (Heart) I have courage to share your love boldly
 (Heart)
 (Heart)
