I don’t wanna be alone in this bed
Won’tcha give me somethin i can take apart
I don’t wanna listen to the yellin in my head
Or the cryin of my idiot heart

Idiot heart
I shoulda left you at home
You gimme nothin but hard love, bad luck
When you gonna leave me me alone?

He was a dark-eyed man and i knew right away
It was gonna take a turn for the worst
So i said ‘hey, heart, if you’re gonna go crazy
Give a little warning first”

Idiot heart
I shoulda left you at home
You gimme nothin but hard love, bad luck
When you gonna leave me me alone?

Ooh, you’re an idiot
A lunatic a nitwit
And you make a fool outta me
Oh, you’re a sad sack
Subtle as a heart attack
Hey heart, when you gonna let me be?

Well it doesn’t take a lot to get you started
And i don’t know how to turn you back off
I guess there ain’t no rest for the idiot-hearted
Until your heart finally stops

Idiot heart
I shoulda left you at home
You gimmme nothin but hard love, bad luck
When you gonna leave me me alone?

Idiot heart
I guess i really shoulda known
You gimmme nothin but hard love, bad luck
When you gonna leave me alone?
You gimmme nothin but hard love, bad luck
Hey, heart: leave me alone.
