I believed you when you said
Why you might be far way
Your loving me would just get better
You'd write a letter every day

But oh my, Joe, why'd you say it?
That's not the way that you play it
I know you'd say, "That's the way it goes"
Not with my heart

Oh my, Joe, why'd you do it?
I guess my heart always knew it
But I'm not the last to go through it, no
But you ain't so smart
I still got my heart, Joe

No one could have loved me more
Even with my funny face
Now, those words come back to me
You said I'd never be replaced

But oh my, Joe, why'd you say it?
That's not the way that you play it
I know you'd say, "That's the way it goes"
Not with my heart

Oh my, Joe, why'd you do it?
I guess my heart always knew it
But I'm not the last to go through it, no
But you ain't so smart
I still got my heart, Joe

But you ain't so smart
I still got my heart, Joe
