I Poured My Heart Into A Song

I Poured My Heart Into A Song - Artie Shaw

I poured my heart into a song

And when you hear it please remember from the start

You won't be hearing

Just the words and tune of a song

You will be listening to my heart

I poured my heart into a song

But I'm afraid the words I chose were not so smart

I couldn't think of clever things to say in my song

I had to say it with my heart

If it's never played

On the hit parade

It will still contain a heart that is beating true

If it's not a hit

I won't mind a bit

Long as it

Conveys the love that I bear for you

Here is my heart wrapped in a song

And if you take it please don't tear my song apart

For if you do you won't be just destroying a song

You will be tearing up my heart
