As you go out it`s Independence Day;
But instead I`ll just pour myself a drink.
It`s got to be love, I`ve never felt this way.
Oh baby, this one`s from the heart
The shadows in the road look like a railroad track.
I wonder if he`s (ever) really comin` back.
The moon`s a yellow stain across the sky.
Oh baby, this one`s from the heart
(Maybe) And I`ll go down to the corner and get a racin` form,
(But) And I should prob`ly wait here by the phone.
And the brakes need adjustment on the convertible
Oh baby, this one`s from the heart
The worm is climbin` the other color tree
Robin is back against the wall;
Pour myself a double sympathy
Oh baby, this one`s from the heart.
Blondes, brunettes, and redheads put their hammer down
(To put ) don`t pound a cold chisel thru my heart.
But they were nothin` but apostrophes.
O baby, this one`s from the heart.
I can`t tell, is that a siren or a saxophone?
But the roads get so slipp`ry (when it rains)
I love you more than all these words can ever say
Oh baby, this one`s from the heart.
