| The lies that you tell will leave you alone
|
| They’ll keep you down
|
| They’ll catch you and trip you up
|
| Keep you hangin' around
|
| The habit is old — you don’t need it anymore
|
| Go on and kiss it goodbye
|
| 'Cause you got me, and I can see
|
| Who you really are
|
| I want to show you my heart
|
| I want to know you by heart
|
| And love you by heart
|
| I’m right here beside you
|
| There’s nobody else to set you straight
|
| To shake you, to let you know
|
| That it’s still not too late —
|
| I want to show you my heart
|
| I want to know you by heart
|
| And love you by heart
|
| Don’t make up stories
|
| I know you by your eyes
|
| I think I know what’s inside
|
| The streets you’ve been on
|
| Will leave you out in the cold
|
| But you know I care
|
| And years from now
|
| We’ll both look down from the top of the stairs —
|
| Here I’ve shown you my heart
|
| I want to know you by heart
|
| And love you by heart |
