Oh, to think of you
And your unswept floor
And how my shadow's hue
Once loved to darken your door
Oh, it don't feel like a heart swell
No, it's more like when you're drivin'
And you fade across the double line
(Oh, it don't feel like a heart swell)
Oh, the feelin' rushin' over
When you make it back across in time
(No, it don't feel like a heart swell)
Oh, hand on your shoulder
When you know there is no peace to find
(Oh, it don't feel like a heart swell)
No, it don't feel like a heart swell
It don't feel like a heart swell
And the cicada choir
Is my backin' band
Join in off key
Country mumble
Sang slow and hard to understand
Oh, it don't feel like a heart swell
No, it's more like when they tell you
They're still lookin' for a heart of gold
(Oh, it don't feel like a heart swell)
Like an immigrant heart
That keeps tryin' to get back home
(No, it don't feel like a heart swell)
Like a crop fire ragin'
And it's takin' everythin' you've sewn
(Oh, it don't feel like a heart swell)
No, it don't feel like a heart swell
It don't feel like a heart swell
Oh, it don't feel like a heart swell
No, it's more like when you're drivin'
And you fade across the double line
(Oh, it don't feel like a heart swell)
Like the feelin' rushin' over
When you make it back across in time
(No, it don't feel like a heart swell)
No, it don't feel like a heart swell
It don't feel like a heart swell
