this old heart of mine þarký sözü

rod stewart with ronald isley
words and music by brian holland, lamont dozier, and eddie holland

this old heart of mine been broke a thousand times
each time you break away i feel you´re gone to stay
lonely nights that come, memories that flow
bringin´ ya back again, hurting me more and more

maybe it´s my mistake to show this love that i feel inside
´cause each day that passes by
ya got me never knowin´ if i´m comin´ or goin´ ´cause

i love you-ou-ou, yes, i do
this old heart (ooh)
i love you-ou-ou, yes, i do
yes, i do, wait for me

i try hard to hide my hurt inside
this old heart of mine always keep me cryin´
the way you´re treatin´ me leaves me incomplete
yeah, you´re here for the day, gone for the week

but if you leave me a hundred times
a hundred times i´ll take you back
i´m yours whenever you want
i´m not too proud to shout it, tell the world about it ´cause

i love you-ou-ou
this old heart (this old heart) waits for you
spoken: and i love ya!
i love you-ou-ou (hoo hoo)
this old heart waits for you (scream)

(instrumental interlude)

this old heart of mine been broke a thousand times
each time you break away i feel you´re gone to stay
lonely nights that come, memories that flow
bringin´ ya back again, hurtin´ me more and more

maybe it´s my mistake to show this love i feel inside, girl
´cause each day that passes by
ya got me never knowin´ if i´m comin´ or goin´ ´cause

i love you-ou-ou, yes, i do (old heart of mine waits for you)
i lo-o-o-ove you, yes, i do
yes, i do

i lo-o-o-ove you

will wait for you
i love you-ou-ou-ou
this old heart, darlin´ (this old heart)
