Lyrics

If my heart had windows
You’d see a heart
Full of love just for you.

A tear may appear
When I hold you near
But that’s for the the few
Things you do
If my heart had windows
You’d see a heart
Full of love just for you.

By your side I will stay
Till we’re old and gray
Well, I miss those
Young moments we knew
If my heart had windows
You’d see a heart
Full of love just for you.

A thief couldn’t steal
The love that I feel
Heaven for me has come true
If my heart had windows
You’d see a heart
Full of love just for you.

If my heart had windows
You’d see a heart
Full of love just for you
