Cardboard Heart Lyrics

We carved our initials that old live oak tree
Your hand next to my hand in the brand new concrete
Your love changed just like the weather
So cold, girl, I oughta wear a sweater
Who knew that forever could be so temporary?

Sometimes I wish I had a cardboard heart
It wouldn't hurt me when you tore it apart
And movin' on wouldn't be so dang hard
If I only, if I only had a cardboard heart

Fold it up, I could just fold it up and move on, yeah
Fold it up, I could just fold it up and move on

There ain't no prescription for this breakup drama
No kind of physician that could fix this trauma
Now she's on a plane to Hawaii
First class with a brand new guy
Who knew she could play me like an old ukulele?

Sometimes I wish I had a cardboard heart
It wouldn't hurt me when you tore it apart
And movin' on wouldn't be so dang hard
If I only, if I only had a cardboard heart

Fold it up, I could just fold it up and move on, yeah
Fold it up, I could just fold it up and move on

Oughta head down to the UPS
Grab a box, cut it out, stick it on my chest
I know it ain't real, but it feels no pain
Now sing along with me if you feel the same

Sometimes I wish I had a cardboard heart
It wouldn't hurt me when you tore it apart
And movin' on wouldn't be so dang hard
If I only, if I only had a cardboard heart

Fold it up, I could just fold it up and move on, yeah
Fold it up, I could just fold it up and move on
Fold it up, I could just fold it up and move on, yeah
Fold it up, I could just fold it up and move on
