| Looking back over the years
|
| Of all the things I’ve always meant to say
|
| But the words didn’t come easily
|
| So many times through empty fears
|
| Of all the nights I tried to pick up the phone
|
| So scared of who might be answering
|
| You try to live your life from day to day
|
| But seeing you across the room tonight
|
| Just gives me away
|
| Because the heart won’t lie
|
| Sometimes life gets in the way
|
| But there’s one thing that won’t change
|
| I know I’ve tried
|
| The heart won’t lie
|
| You can live your alibi
|
| Who can see you’re lost inside a foolish disguise
|
| The heart won’t lie
|
| Long after tonight
|
| Will you still hear my voice through the radio
|
| Old desires make us act carelessly
|
| Long after tonight, after the fire
|
| After the scattered ashes fly
|
| Through the four winds blown and gone
|
| Will you come back to me?
|
| You try to live your life from day to day
|
| But seeing you across the room tonight
|
| Just gives me away
|
| Because the heart won’t lie
|
| Sometimes life gets in the way
|
| But there’s one thing that won’t change
|
| I know I’ve tried
|
| The heart won’t lie
|
| You can live your alibi
|
| Who can see you’re lost inside a foolish disguise
|
| The heart won’t lie
|
| The heart won’t lie |
