(THE RIGHTS TO) YOUR HEART, MY HEART written by Sheldon Manoo (1994)

BOY:

You have the rights to my heart

Only you can do something with it

GIRL:

I hold the rights to your heart

Only I could do something with it

BOY:

I hold the rights to your sweet heart

I ain’t gonna misuse it

GIRL:

You have the rights to my tender heart

So don’t you ever abuse it

(MUSIC)

BOY:

When I gave up my love I gave it all to you

I told you to do whatever you would have to

My heart is no longer in my jurisdiction

You’re the only one who can make any conviction

I left it all up to your great decisions

You don’t need to ask me for permission

You are the reason for my going on

Without you my heart is gone

You’re the reason I have all this love to give

I’ll depend on you as long as I live

You got the rights to my heart

I got the rights to yours oh oh

(MUSIC)

When you gave me your heart it was the best treasure I ever received

It was a moment I found so hard to believe

I said to myself well girl this is finally it

The treasure to spend the rest of your life with

I’ll make the rest of your life worth every genuine second

I’ll answer all those things that you’ll beckon

I’m gonna rule your world with care, patience and sensitivity

Show you all the things that you want to see

I’ll give you the rights to my heart forever

Ain’t gonna pay heed to any other, oh oh

BOY:

You have the rights to my heart

Only you can do something with it

GIRL:

I hold the rights to your heart

Only I could do something with it

BOY:

I hold the rights to your sweet heart

I ain’t gonna misuse it

GIRL:

You have the rights to my tender heart

So don’t you ever abuse it
