Tear out your heart
And keep it company
Set it here by me and
Sing it a sad song

Tear out your heart and
Cry the tears you need
Give it a brand new chance
Reason for romance

Tear out your heart
See if anybody cares
People stop and stare
Desolation everywhere
Tear out your heart
It makes no difference now
Good times seldom last
Forget the past

There's a candle burning on a hillside
There's a silent ringing in the air
There's a feeling something's gonna happen
Out there

Tear out your heart
And set your spirit free
Let it wander on in ecstasy
Tear out your heart
No more games to play
No more time to say
Let's fly away

Tear out your heart
Oh tear out your heart
Yeah tear out your heart
Tear out your heart
