1.Dont speak of my heart, it hurts too much -- hurts to touch
Im writing the book each and every day
Take a look at my face, I still need -- I still bleed
Ive been running on empty since you went away.
1st Chorus
The spirit world looks down on us
Sad that were apart
So please dont speak of my heart.
2. Whenever we talk she says hang on -- just hang on
Meanwhile Im drowning in the pouring rain
And each time we meet theres a sad farewell -- sad farewell
She tells me someday Im gonna love again.
2nd Chorus (same chords as 1st Chorus)
The way that she walked out on me
Still tears me apart
So please dont speak of my heart.
Every days an endless maze of dreams that fade and die
No one believed we were saying Goodbye
And every night I think of you Im still left wondering why
I cant believe that were saying goodbye.
And when I wake up in the morning
And wonder where Im going to
It all came without a warning
Whats a man supposed to do?
Dont let your heart break down
Dont let your heart break down.
Repeat 1st Verse
The spirit world looks down on us,
Sad that were apart
Dont wanna talk about it -- dont make me think about it
So please dont speak of my heart.
