Intro
Verse 1
There are
locks on the doors
And
chains stretched across all the
entries t
o the i
nside
There's a
gate and a fence
And
bars to protect from only
God knows w
hat lurks outsi
de
Who stole your heart left
you with a space
That
no one and n
othing can f
ill
Who stole your heart
who took it away
Knowing that w
ithout it you c
an't live
Chorus
Who took away the part
so essential to the whole
Left you a hollow body, Skin and bone
What robber
what thief
Who stole your heart and the key
Verse 2
Who stole your heart
The
smile from your face
The
innocence the
light from your
eyes
Who stole your heart or did you
give it away
And
if so
then when and
why
Chorus
Who took away the part
so essential to the whole
Left you a hollow body, Skin and bone
What robber
what thief
Who stole your heart and the key
Bridge
Now all sentiment is
gone
Now you have no trust in no
one
Verse 3
Who stole your heart
Did you
know but forget the
method and
moment in
time
Was it a
trickster using
mirrors and sleight of hand
A strong
elixir
or a potion that you drank
Verse 4
Who hurt your heart
Bruised it in a place
That
no one and
nothing can
heal
You've gone to
wizards,
princes and magic men
You've gone to
witches, the
good the bad the indifferent
Bridge
Now all sentiment is
gone
Now you have no trust in no
one
Verse 5
If you can
tear down the walls
Throw your
armor away re
move all
roadblocks barri
cades
If you can
forget there are bandits and d
ragons to slay
And don't
forget that you
defend an empty
space
And remember the
tinman
Found he had what he thought he lacked
Remember the
tinman
Go
find your heart and take it back
Outro
Who stole your heart
Maybe
no one can say
One d
ay you
will find it I
