"Heart Like A Wheel" lyrics

Heart Like A Wheel

(With Maria Muldaur)

Some say the heart
Is just like a wheel
When you bend it
You can't mend it

But my love for you
Is like a sinking ship
And my heart is on that ship
Out in mid-ocean

When harm is done
No love can be won
I know it happens
Frequently

What I can't understand
Oh, please God hold my hand
Why it had to happen to me

And it's only love
And it's only love
That can wreck a human being
And turn him inside out

Some say the heart
Is just like a wheel
When you bend it
You can't mend it

But my love for you
Is like a sinking ship
And my heart is on that ship
Out in mid-ocean
