Del Amitri - The Heart Is a Bad Design

Sometimes I think what's the point of loving anyone... In the end,
each time you finish a fight its just the start of a new one again
You put all the pain to the back of your mind
Move up close, pray it works out fine
That's when you know the heart is a bad design

Some try to go it alone but nobody wants to do that
Each time you make up your mind your heart beats it's own way back
And though it doesn't matter that love is blind
You guide it into trouble everything turns out just fine
That's how you know the heart is a bad design

You know it can't keep secrets
It only harbours regrets
You find things lying deep in your heart
Even bad jokes, slips, forgets

Sometimes I think I've done wrong but nobody ever did right
Each time some girl comes along its head over heels overnight
You put all the pain to the back of your mind,
Dive in deep and hope it works out fine
That's how you know the heart is a bad design
That's how you know the heart is a bad design
That's how you know the heart is a bad design
