Poor old Captain Bleeding Heart is down in the dumps today
He doesn't know why and she doesn't say why
He just hopes that she will wait
So poor old Captain Bleeding Heart had another bout today

He tries and he lies and he doesn't know why
His ego gets in the way
So poor old Captain Bleeding Heart stumbles around his day
He lets out a sigh, puts his hand to his eye
can't think while he's away
REFRAIN:
Well it's hard sometimes when you're far from home
and you feel you've lost your way
So put your socks back on, put your toys away
and please drag your bleeding heart home
Poor old Captain Bleeding Heart woke up alone today
He goes to the phone but knows she's not home
and he wouldn't know what to say
With an if and a but and a pain in his gut
let her do the talking today
So poor old Captain Bleeding Heart
put his foot in his mouth today
He doesn't know what, should keep his mouth shut
he's gotta learn what to say
REFRAIN (x2)
Poor old Captain Bleeding Heart
feels sorry for himself today
Well it's hard sometimes when you're alone at home
and you feel you've lost your way
So put your pants back home, put your bed away
And please drag your bleeding heart home
