If My Heart Had Windows is the second album recorded by country music artist Patty Loveless, and was released in 1988. The title track — a cover of a George Jones song from 1967 — became Loveless' first top ten hit, peaking on the Billboard Country Music charts at number 10.[1] It was then followed by her biggest chart position (number 2 on September 10, 1988[2]) at the time with "A Little Bit In Love," a song written by country artist Steve Earle. It also features a recording of the song "Baby's Gone Blues", which would be recorded by Shelby Lynne for her 1990 album Tough All Over and by Reba McEntire for her 1992 album It's Your Call.

The album peaked at number 33 on April 2, 1988.[3]

This album was released the same year (1988) that Loveless became a Member of the Grand Ole Opry.[4]
