Heart Attack At 23

Tori Amos · Y Kant Tori Read [1988]

sirens wake me up

wake me up

with a cry

things we do

for attention...

just a little

reminder dear

i am still alive



so confused

i almost threw

it all away

for you

you took me higher

and you dropped

me lower

than i've ever been

before



if i have a heart attack

at 23

i'm loving you too much

if i have a heart attack

at 23

wave bye-bye

you'll miss me

you'll miss me baby

if i have a heart attack

at 23



all my friends

we waste so

much love

on our men

why can't i

be forgiving

while he been out

a-messin'

with his argentine baby



if i have a heart attack

at 23

i'm loving you too much

if i have a heart attack

at 23

wave bye-bye

you'll miss me

you'll miss me baby

if i have a heart attack

at 23



i must be dreaming

we were together

in a

land of scarlet ribbon

that tied you to me darlin'



roll roll roll roll on

but you know i'm never

satisfied

with all the good things

in my life

i thought i needed you

to be strong

i'll still miss you

when i'm gone



if i have a heart attack

at 23

i'm loving you too much

if i have a heart attack

at 23

wave bye-bye

you'll miss me

you'll miss me baby

if i have a heart attack

at 23
