oklahoma stray

rumer

baby

once in oklahoma

i took in a stray cat

i came home from work one day

and there she sat

but someone long before me

had injured her so much

though i fed her for a year

never did we touch

oh

some hearts truly

baby

some hearts truly

truly break

well

i swear nobody chooses

to live a life alone

but i guess trust all drains away

in hearts cut to the bone

and god forbid i lose you

'cause

baby

come that day

i swear i will be just another

oklahoma stray

oh

some hearts truly

baby

some hearts truly

truly break

nothing is more gentle

nothing is more fragile

nothing more courageous

nothing more in danger

than an open heart

baby

once in oklahoma

i took in a stray

but then one night i found her on

the roadside where she lay

and then at last i held her

and then i dug a grave

and cried for her and cried for every

heart love could not save

oh

love

love truly

baby

some hearts truly

baby

some hearts truly

truly break
