I get the message

loud and clear

what once was close to you is no longer dear

but if you don't mind, if you would please

give me my heart in one piece

(chorus)
Gimme my heart
Gimme my heart
Gimme my heart in one piece.

You keep the presents

you can have the ring

what good are they to me they don't mean a thing

but if you don't mind

if you would please

Gimme my heart in one piece

(chorus)

All those love songs

I wrote for you

including this one, you can have it too.

But if you don't mind

if you would please

Gimme my heart in one piece.

(chorus) x 2
