cold , cold heart

i've been told
i got a cold, cold heart
a cold, cold part

i don't feel
i don't heal
i don't know
how ta' show
the Real Deal

that may be true
that may be a lie
yeah,
i'm blue
but i do cry

so,
if my heart
is cold
that's just the part
that's growin' old

with each new pain
with each life's refrain
i gain
& that's livin Life
on the Main

a heart
a part
that melts
in the dark
when life's too stark

in the cold
want my heart ta' hold
onto that part
i had from the start

that part that's me
see?

it's not my heart
that's cold, cold

it's my life
a growin' old
that' the story
to be told

but,
i'm young at heart
never show that part
got a part
you'll never see
that part is me

not unless
you get the chance
ta' dance
to see

ta' know me

otherwise
you'll surmise
this old fart's
got a cold cold heart

then
you'll miss that part
that is me
can ya' see?

Seems to me dear Steve that someone who could write such a beautiful soulsearching song/poem is not cold, is not a "old fart" and DOES INDEED HAVE A HEART! LOVELY WORK STEVE, VERY TOUCHING!!!!
