Oh, to think of you
And your unswept floor
And how my shadow′s hueOnce 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
