Lyrics for Cast Iron Heart
Got left out rusting in the rain Weathered a whole world of pain But with a little love it'll shine like new I give my cast iron heart to you I'm not a brand-new thing Got a lot of salt and seasoning People think we're past our prime But I say we got here just in time I believe in love that deepens Every season comes around again Comes around again When you wake up just after dawn I will make your coffee strong Put butter in the frying pan And come and kiss your calloused hands I'll waltz you all around the room My first of May magnolia bloom My sunset girl, my pretty bride The lines around your hazel eyes I believe in love that deepens Every season comes around again Comes around again You make it long enough in life Your heart'll break a thousand times Why would you do it all alone? Walk with me this last stretch of road We're beaten up and broken in We've tasted our own medicine Maybe we're a vestige of the past Maybe we're just built to last I believe in love that deepens Every season comes around again Comes around again I believe in love that deepens Every season comes around again Comes around again Comes around again Comes around again Got left out rusting in the rain Weathered a whole world of pain But with a little love it'll shine like new I give my cast iron heart to you
