If My Heart Had Windows is the second album recorded by country music artist Patty Loveless, and was released in 1988.

It was then followed by her biggest chart position (#2 on September 10, 1988) 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 in 1992 by Reba McEntire and released on her album It's Your Call.
