Dolly Parton
Dagger Through the Heart
[Verse 1]
Oh, you're out there tonight with another
And my pain is so dreadfully sharp
I picture you with her and shudder
It's like a dagger through the heart
[Verse 2]
Do you think that my feelings don't matter?
Or your cheating or hurtful remarks?
When you leave me all broken and shattered
It's like a dagger through the heart
[Chorus]
Oh, I know I'm a fool to keep staying
When you've made hurting me such an art
Tossed around like a used box of crayons
It's like a dagger through the heart
[Verse 3]
Oh, you cut me to pieces so often
Like a knife or a poisonous dart
I would be better off in my coffin
It's like a dagger through the heart
[Chorus]
Oh, I know I'm a fool to keep staying
When you've made hurting me such an art
Tossed around like a used box of crayons
It's like a dagger through the heart
[Outro]
Like a dagger through the heart, through the heart
