leo sayer - wounded heart lyrics

(s. climie/c. carter)
i don't need you to mend my broken heart
not afraid you can throw your sticks and stones
but this love is tearing me apart
i've got a wounded heart
and it won't stop beating
tried to keep it a casual affair
nonetheless we get careless 'cos we care
why does love make me fall apart
it only hurts my heart
and it won't stop beating
got a wounded heart
and it won't stop beating
no matter what i do
a wounded heart
that keeps repeating
i'm missing you
missing you
got a wounded heart
and it won't stop leading
me right back to you
a wounded heart
do you need me like i need you
you know i'm tryin'
to get some piece of mind
but i can't seem to put
the past behind
i don't want you
living in my dreams
no matter how it seems
i don't want you
i gotta wounded heart
and it won't stop beating
no matter what i do
a wounded heart
that keeps repeating
i'm missing you
missing you
got a wounded heart
and it won't stop leading
me right back to you
a wounded heart
you need me like i need you

[solo]

oh you know i'm missing you, ooh
i gotta wounded heart
and it won't stop beating
no matter what i do
a wounded heart
that keeps repeating
i'm missing you
i'm missing you, missing you
got a wounded heart
and it won't stop leading
me right back to you
a wounded heart
keeps repeating
i'm missing you
