Intro: verse 1 Your heart is dark as a hemlock grove Where the sun never shines and nothing grows Black as each feather in a murder of crows Your heart is dark as a hemlock grove verse 2 Your heart is empty as winter in a tourist town The boardwalk deserted, all shuttered down And every bird has flown southbound Your heart is empty as winter in a tourist town Bridge There is no resolution, try as I might I shun the darkness, but I shy away from the light There's a hole inside I try to fill But you dig it deeper still___ verse 3 Our love is crooked as the teeth in an old man's smile As the stones in the graveyard, as a country mile But I'll drive all night to get there, if you let me stay awhile Our love is crooked as the teeth in an old man's smile verse 4 Your heart is empty as winter in a tourist town Your heart is dark as a hemlock grove
