tinman

written by brad layher

dorothy don't you know,
i'm following your road of gold,
so you can get back again,

and somehow i'd beleive,
that you would never really leave,
or fall for that scarecrow man,

but you won't see me cry,
cause i am not that kind of guy,
who wears his heart on his sleeve,
but i'm trying to be, for you, i'm trying to be...

so please hold my hand,
let's dance in the rain,
cause i cannot cry i will not lie...i am your tinman.

dorothy have you heard,
you know i have not said a word,
after the rain fell thru,

and dorothy don't you know,
that i could never really go,
cause i cannot move,
since the rain fell thru,

but you and your red shoes,
will take you back and take you thru,
past the lollipop guild,
now who i gotta kill to get some shoes like that now click your heels...

chorus

so take my hand, we're off to see the wizard,
or the man behind his curtain,
you know if i only had a heart,
it might not be as hard to love you.
