Story behind the song
What do you get after 15 rewrites? a simple song; the hardest for me to write. Inspired by Ringo Starky singing, "Out of my dreams and into my car"
Lyrics
BRAND NEW HEART
by Samuel Harris 2006
(V1)
Girl you always said I was the reckless one
But I never hurt no one- just having fun
I guess I might have broke a heart a time or two
But girl I never smash them up the way you do
CHORUS
I need a brand new heart- cause the one you broke
You left a burning wreck –that’s all she wrote
I don’t miss it much today- it was too small anyway
So you can haul that wreck away- I need a brand new heart
(V2)
My brand new will come equipped with Turbo Glide
And ease me down the highway without you inside
And when I put that hummer into cruise control
I’ll wave goodbye, and see you down the road
CHORUS
(V3)
My brand new heart will take me where I want to go
And it will come with all the latest theft control
Cause girl you smash up every single heart you steal
I swear you’ll never get behind the wheel
CHORUS
Bridge: I’ve had this same old heart since I was just a kid
But I can’t use it now after what you did
I need a brand new heart- cause the one you broke
Is just a burning wreck –that’s all she wrote
I don’t miss it much today- it was too small anyway
So you can haul that wreck away
Some day I’ll make you pay
For my brand new heart
