Oh, this old heart of mine
Been broke a thousand times
Each time you break away
I feel you're gonna stay
Lonely nights that come,
Memories that flow
Bringing you back again,
Hurting me more and more
Maybe it's my mistake to show this love I feel inside
Cause each day that passes by
You got me never knowing if I'm coming or going, but I
I love you,
This old heart darling (darling) weeps for you
I love you, yes I do (yes I do)
These old arms of mine
Miss having you around
Makes these tears inside
Start falling down, well
Always with half a kiss
You remind me of what I miss
So I try to control myself
Like I'm gonna start fainting, cause my heart stops beating, cause I
I love you,
This old heart darling weeps for you (weeps for you)
I love you, yes I do (yes I do)
Oh I try to hide my hurt inside
This old heart of mine always makes me cry
The way you treat me leaves me incomplete
You're in for the day, gone for the week, now
But if you leave me a hundred times
A hundred times I'll take you back
I'm yours whenever you want me
I'm not too proud to shout it,
Tell the world about it, cause I
I love you
This old heart darling (darling) weeps for you
I love you
This old heart darling weeps for you (weeps for you)
I love you
This old heart darling (darling) weeps for you
I love you, yes I do (yes I do)

The Isley Brothers sing This Old Heart Of Mine (1966)
Their first Motown LP contains the hit title track, plus the followup "I Guess I'll Always Love You"; almost all composed by Holland-Dozier-Holland. (DBW)
A powerful set by the Isley Brothers , who tasted success with "Shout" and "Twist & Shout" before joining Motown. Brian Holland and Lamont Dozier produced the lion's share of tracks, and wrote most of them with the aid of Eddie Holland . An infectious "This Old Heart of Mine" took off -- its throbbing beat, memorable melody and inspired vocals are as irresistible now as they were in 1966. The urgent "Take Some Time Out for Love," with its wailing vocals, made a little R&B noise; a creation of Robert Gordy and Thomas Kemp, it's one of two tracks not handled by Holland-Dozier-Holland . The other is the insightful, biblically titled "Seek and You Shall Find," done magnificently by Ron Isley, who sings the positive lyrics with understated fire. "I Guess I'll Always Love You" is a midtempo gem sung by Ron in his natural register, as he does all these songs; the sweet falsetto he used almost exclusively in the '80s and '90s is nowhere to be found. Isley versions of "Nowhere to Run," "Stop in the Name of Love," "Baby Don't You Do It" and "I Hear a Symphony" are comparable to, if not better than, the originals.
