This Heart of Mine Lyrics
If all is fair in love and war
I haven't seen the score
But it can't be either of those
And all this time, thought I was in control
But fate she held her own
Even when I thought I chose
Now the coldest day of winter
Has made a home of my heart
It burns a cold right through me
Tearing me apart
When did I lose you?
It feels like such a crime
When did I lose all
The reasons for this rhyme
So many questions burning
In this heart of mine
A thousand memories
Of when and where
Four walls and a rocking chair
Our story sticking to my skin
A dusty wind
Blows through this broken frame
Echoes of your name
Shadows fall and night pours in
Now the coldest day of winter
Has made a home of a heart
Says it plans to stay forever
Just like you did at the start
When did I lose you?
It feels like such a crime
When did I lose all
The reasons for this rhyme
So many questions burning
In this heart of mine
Now the coldest day of winter
Is here and here to stay
And it burns a cold right through me
'Round the heart you threw away
When did I lose you?
It feels like such a crime
When did I lose all
The reasons for this rhyme
So many questions burning
In this heart of mine
I haven't seen the score
But it can't be either of those
But fate she held her own
Even when I thought I chose
Has made a home of my heart
It burns a cold right through me
Tearing me apart
It feels like such a crime
When did I lose all
The reasons for this rhyme
So many questions burning
In this heart of mine
Of when and where
Four walls and a rocking chair
Our story sticking to my skin
Blows through this broken frame
Echoes of your name
Shadows fall and night pours in
Has made a home of a heart
Says it plans to stay forever
Just like you did at the start
It feels like such a crime
When did I lose all
The reasons for this rhyme
So many questions burning
In this heart of mine
Is here and here to stay
And it burns a cold right through me
'Round the heart you threw away
It feels like such a crime
When did I lose all
The reasons for this rhyme
So many questions burning
In this heart of mine

How does this song have no comments? I love the Wailin' Jennys. Their voices mesh so beautifully. This song is very self explanatory, almost cliche in the lyrics, but the delivery is so incredible and the melody really lends itself to their voices. Haunting. Definitely one of my favorites.
