Will I ever understand how anything gets done?
I tied a knot in my heart for you, thinking that's what you wanted.
I tried to make my voice sincere
(tell everyone how hard it was!)
And anyway, I could never reach your ears,
Like the weight of its wings were clipped when they hovered near you.
Should I tie your arms afloat to its melody,
And anchor my heart to you in hopes I'll climb out your mouth?
I was so sure you wanted love, how could anyone find doubt?
I tied a knot in my heart for you, though it's not what you wanted.
(Wear your heart out for me)
