Don't speak of my heart, it hurts too much -- hurts to touchI'm writing the book each and every dayTake a look at my face, I still need -- I still bleedI've been running on empty since you went away.
The spirit world looks down on usSad that we're apartSo please don't speak of my heart.
Whenever we talk she says hang on -- just hang onMeanwhile I'm drowning in the pouring rainAnd each time we meet there's a sad farewell -- sad farewellShe tells me someday I'm gonna love again.
The way that she walked out on meStill tears me apartSo please don't speak of my heart.
Every day's an endless maze of dreams that fade and dieNo one believed we were saying ‘Goodbye'And every night I think of you I'm still left wondering whyI can't believe that we're saying goodbye.
And when I wake up in the morningAnd wonder where I'm going toIt all came without a warningWhat's a man supposed to do?
Don't let your heart break downDon't let your heart break down.
Don't speak of my heart, it hurts too much -- it hurts to touchI'm writing the book each and every dayTake a look at my face, I still need -- I still bleedI've been running on empty since you went away.
The spirit world looks down on us,Sad that we're apartDon't wanna talk about it -- don't make me think about itSo please don't speak of my heart.
