Saw a man in the movies
That didn’t have a heart
How I wish I could give him mine
Then I wouldn’t have to feel
It breaking all apart
And this emptiness inside
Would suit me fine
It’s times like these
I wish I were the tin man
You could hurt me all you wanted
And I’d never even know
I’d give anything
Just to be the tin man
And I wouldn’t have a heart
And I wouldn’t need a soul
I couldn’t see your leavin’ coming,
You took me by surprise
Even now still seems like a dream
But I know I can’t be dreamin’
‘Cause as I lay down each night
The pain’s so great
That it won’t let me sleep
It’s times like these
I wish I were the tin man
You could hurt me all you wanted
I’d never even know
Well, I’d give anything
Just to be the tin man
And I wouldn’t have a heart
And I wouldn’t need a soul
Well, I’d give anything
Just to be the tin man
And I wouldn’t have a heart
And I wouldn’t miss you so
