saw a man in the movies

that didn't have a heart

how i wish i could give him mine

then i wouldn't have to feel

it breaking all apart

and this emptiness inside

would suit me fine

it's times like these

i wish i were a tin man

you could hurt me all you wanted

and i'd never even know

i'd give anything

just to be the tin man

and i wouldn't have a heart

and i wouldn't need a soul

i couldn't see your leavin comin'

you took me by surprise

even now it still seems like a dream

but i know i can't be dreamin

cause as i lay down each night

the pain so great that

it won't let me sleep

it's times like these

i wish i were a tin man

you could hurt me all you wanted

and i'd never even know

i'd give anything

just to be the tin man

and i wouldn't have a heart

and i wouldn't need a soul

well i'd give anything

just to be the tin man

and i wouldn't have a heart

and i wouldn't miss you so
