They’ve come up lean
Halfhearted romances
Came apart at the seams
I’ve taken my time
And I’ve rushed too fast
Keep falling behind
To the end of the track
The longer I listen
The less that I learn
Seems the further I go
The more bridges I burn
The harder I try
The harder it gets
I go on looking
But I still haven’t found it yet
It’s the give and the take
That’s how it goes
When your head is the hammer
And your heart is the rose
I’ve stopped even trying
There’s no way to win
Floorboards are crying
And the walls are caving in
My head tells me to run
My heart says stay
When it’s all said and done
I let it all slip away
The longer I listen
The less that I learn
Seems the further I go
The more bridges I burn
The harder I try
The harder it gets
I go on looking
But I still haven’t found it yet
It’s the give and the take
That’s how’s it goes
When your head is the hammer
And your heart is the rose
