She's a bad actress
        
But hey
                             
You give her the big lines anyway
                        
Though her eyes are big as Canada
                       
And her hips are South Australia
                       
And the shoulder blade is Africa
                   
Looking out on South America
             
Im out here on the sea
                                     
And here heart ain't where it ought to be

She's a bad actress
But hey
She's got a big part in your play
Now my apartment lies awake at night
It tosses everytime she sighs
Tries to make it easy on her eyes
But I can feel it giving up the fight
My whole buildings on it's last floors
Her hearts not in it anymore

     
Ooh.........
                  
Ooh.............................

She said she gave her heart to you
If it was precious why'd you lose it?
But if it was golden, it'd shine
If it's big it won't be hard to find
If it's real, it stains your hand like wine
You can look but there is no use in trying
Cause no matter what she said, the truth
Is that she never gave her hear to you
