Last July I thought I was in love
Used to think that she’d be the only one
Sitting on a blanket watching all the fireworks
Next day came the flame had all burnt out
The sky was empty like my heart is now
She up and left me like a worn out t-shirt
Why does this happen to me every time?

If you want my hand me down heart
You’ve gotta always wear it on your sleeve
Love me like you’ll never leave
Please forgive me, try and understand
That I’ve been burned too many times
Ripped up, torn, and left behind
I believe that, maybe, baby you are a good fit for my hand me down heart

You look like you’ve been there too
And you could use someone to feel brand new
So baby come on over here and let’s talk about it
‘Cause girl I’m ready to love again
Without thinking about how this will end
I guess I’m just lucky that I lost and found it
I am gonna take a chance just one more time

If you want my hand me down heart 
You’ve gotta always wear it on your sleeve 
Love me like you’ll never leave 
Please forgive me, try and understand 
That I’ve been burned too many times 
Ripped up, torn, and left behind 
I believe that, maybe, baby you are a good fit for my hand me down heart
