I sometimes wear my heart in stripes
Sometimes in bright pink polka dots
I've never tried wearing it in deep shades of green
Or maybe baby-blue.
I sometimes wear my heart under the sun
Sometimes I keep it cool in splashing rain
I should perhaps try to cover it in mud
Or maybe sprinkle it with sand.
I sometimes wear my heart in hugs and smiles
Sometimes in lonely words
I would have worn it in your hands
Or maybe in our dreams.
I sometimes wear my heart with heels
Sometimes with flats stepping on rocks
I sometimes run with it in running shoes
Or feel the grass on bare heart.
I sometimes wear my heart in ruffeled dresses
Sometimes in hot designer jeans
I've tried to wear it in your clothes
Or sprayed with your perfume.
I sometimes wear my heart unchaged
Sometimes it walks uncertain
I try to keep it always strong
Or never giving up, at least.
I sometimes wear my heart alone
Sometimes with others holding hands
I should sometimes let you wear it
Or maybe switch it's place.
