It was a ruby
That she wore
On a chain

Around her neck
In the shape of a heart,

In the shape of 0 heart
Was a time

I won't forget
Or the sorrow

And reg ref
And the shape of a heart,

And the shape of a heart
(Instrumental Break)
I guess I never knew
What she was

Talking about
I guess I never knew

What she was
Livin' without
Wait around for the one

Who fits iusf like a glove
And try to fit some name

To their longing
People speak of love
There was a hole

Left in the well,
From some ancient fight
About the size of a fist,

Or something thrown

That had missed
And there were

Other holes as well
Far 100 mu ny to repair,

In the time that
We were there
You keep it up,
You try so ha rd
And never know
Whai breaches and faults

Are concealed in
The shape of a heart
In the shape of a heart,

In the shape of 0 heart
(Instrumental Break)
It was the ruby
That she wore
On a stand

Beside the bed
When I knew

She was gone
And I held ii

In my hand,
For a liHle while
I let it go and

Heard it fall
Ah
I guess I never knew

What she was
Talking about
I guess I never knew

What she was
Livin' without
Wait around for the one

Who fits iusf like a glove
And try to find the word

For forgiving
Oh, ho
Ya keep it up,

You try so hard
To keep a life from

Comin' a port
And never know
The shallows and the

Unseen reefs
That are there
From the start
In the shape of a heart,

In the shape of 0 heart
