This One's from The Heart Lyrics

Tom Waits

I should go out and honk, it's Independence Day But instead I just pour myself a drink It's got to be love, I've never felt this way Oh baby, this one's from the heart
The shadows on the wall look like a railroad track I wonder if he's ever comin' back The moon's a yellow stain across the sky Oh baby, this one's from the heart
Maybe I'll go down to the corner and get a racin' form But I should prob'ly wait here by the phone And the brakes need adjustment on the convertible Oh baby, this one's from the heart
The worm is climbin' the avocado tree Rubbin' its back against the wall Pour myself a double sympathy Oh baby, this one's from the heart
Blondes, brunettes, and redheads put their hammer down To pound a cold chisel through my heart But they were nothin' but apostrophes Oh baby, this one's from the heart
I can't tell, is that a siren or a saxophone? But the roads get so slippery when it rains I love you more than all these words can ever say Oh baby, this one's from the heart
