Wooden Heart Lyrics by Boom Forest

Boom Forest

2014

[Verse]
As a young man I lived deep inside a forest
With a wooden heart to help me bide my time
You've heard stories like a million times before this
This is mine, this is mine
It's about a time a man had felt he finally met his match
She had lost her way while dancing in the shade
And she told him that if he'd carve her name into his wooden heart
She would stay, stay
[Chorus]
But lived inside a wooden heart
Couldn't see the forest for the trees
But if I would have gone down for anyone
It was she
It was she
It was she
[Verse]
So the shadow dancer made a proposition
In my wooden heart, I still was petrified
I had lived alone for so long in that forest
That I could not bear to share it with a bride
So I sent that girl away and all I gave her was a line
I said everything worthwhile will come in time
But since she's gone away I've ne'er felt so alone
Living in a wooden heart inside my mind
[Chorus]
But lived inside a wooden heart
Couldn't see the forest for the trees
But if I would have gone down for anyone
It was she
It was she
It was she
[Verse]
For years I wandered nights inside the forest
Crying as her name which echoed from the trees
Though years have passed since last I left the forest
I can hear her dance in every shadow that I see
