Hank Thompson Blackboard Of My Heart Lyrics

Blackboard Of My Heart Lyrics

When I was young and went to school 

 They taught me how to write 

 To take the chalk and make a mark 

 And hope it turns out right 

 Well that's the way it is with love 

 And what you did to me 

 I wrote it so you'd know 

 That I was yours eternally 

  

 (Chorus) 

 But my tears have washed I love you 

 From the blackboard of my heart 

 It's too late to clean the slate 

 And make another start 

 I'm satisfied the way things are 

 Although we're far apart 

 My tears have washed I love you from 

 The blackboard of my heart 

  

 If you'd been true the way you should 

 And not have gone astray 

 These tears would not have fallen down 

 And washed the words away 

 No need to talk, 'cause if the chalk 

 Should write those words again It will be for someone else 

 Not things that might have been 

  

 (Chorus
