Aerosmith - Hearts Done Time Lyrics
Lyrics Translation
The lyrics explore themes of love, betrayal, and resilience, with the narrator reflecting on the emotional toll of a failed relationship, as if their heart has "done time" in a figurative prison. Musically, it’s driven by pounding drums, fiery guitar riffs, and Steven Tyler's electrifying vocals, setting the tone for the band's rejuvenated sound in the late 1980s. The song captures the essence of Aerosmith's mix of raw power and polished production, making it a memorable and dynamic album opener.
Song lyrics
I met a woman, she had a man
I couldn't help it, I had a plan
Right around midnight, he was gone
Saw her red light, she left it on
And oh-oh, my heart's done time
And oh-oh, now she's mine
Now she's mine
Yeah
If there's a reason for these chains
It's like we suffer to ease the pain
Now I got this feeling inside of me
My heart's in jail and I can't get free
Oh-oh, my heart's done time
And oh-oh, now she's mine
And oh-oh, my heart's done time
And oh-oh, now she's mine
Now she's mine, yeah
Now she's mine
Now she's mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine
Now she's mine
Oh-oh, my heart's done time
And oh-oh, now she's mine, yeah
Now she's mine, yeah
Now she's mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah...
