Hand-Carved Heart Lyrics
There's an old Spanish oak
Bent over a country road
If it could tell all that it knows
Of the hand-carved heart
Once two lovers slept in the shade
His hands weaving through her dark braid
They shared the edge of his blanket
Then carved their names in the bark
[Chorus:]
But the heart it has darkened
With the weather of years
It may never fade away
Washed clean with her tears
But the human heart breaks
With a hurt that runs deep through the blood
I wish it was made out of wood
Like a hand-carved heart
Then he rode away
Down that old country road
Away from the old Spanish oak
With the hand-carved heart
He said he'd be back oneday
She wept as she waited she prayed
She vowed she would never betray
The hand-carved heart
[Chorus]
But the human heart breaks
With a hurt that runs deep through the blood
I wish it was made out of wood
Like a hand-carved heart
A hand-carved heart
Like a hand-carved heart
A hand-carved heart
Bent over a country road
If it could tell all that it knows
Of the hand-carved heart
Once two lovers slept in the shade
His hands weaving through her dark braid
They shared the edge of his blanket
Then carved their names in the bark
But the heart it has darkened
With the weather of years
It may never fade away
Washed clean with her tears
But the human heart breaks
With a hurt that runs deep through the blood
I wish it was made out of wood
Like a hand-carved heart
Down that old country road
Away from the old Spanish oak
With the hand-carved heart
He said he'd be back oneday
She wept as she waited she prayed
She vowed she would never betray
The hand-carved heart
With a hurt that runs deep through the blood
I wish it was made out of wood
Like a hand-carved heart
Like a hand-carved heart
A hand-carved heart
