<<<Remember The Tinman>>>

[phatman]

There are locks on the doors

And chains stretched across all the entries to the inside

There's a gate and a fence

And bars to protect from only God knows what lurks outside

Who stole your heart left you with a space

That no one and nothing can fill

Who stole your heart who took it away

Knowing that without it you can't live

Who took away the part so essential to the whole

Left you a hollow body

Skin and bone

What robber what thief who stole your heart and the key

Who stole your heart

The smile from your face

The innocence the light from your eyes

Who stole your heart or did you give it away

And if so then when and why

Who took away the part so essential to the whole

Left you a hollow body

Skin and bone

What robber what thief

Who stole your heart and the key

Now all sentiment is gone

Now you have no trust in no one

Who stole your heart

Did you know but forget the method and moment in time

Was it a trickster using mirrors and sleight of hand

A strong elixir or a potion that you drank

Who hurt your heart

Bruised it in a place

That no one and nothing can heal

You've gone to wizards, princes and magic men

You've gone to witches, the good the bad the indifferent

But still all sentiment is gone

But still you have no trust in no one

If you can tear down the walls

Throw your armor away remove all roadblocks barricades

If you can forget there are bandits and dragons to slay

And don't forget that you defend an empty space

And remember the tinman

Found he had what he thought he lacked

Remember the tinman

Go find your hear and take it back

Who stole your heart

Maybe no one can say

One day you will find it I pray
