"I Can't Tell My Heart That" lyrics

I Can't Tell My Heart That

Oh my foolish heart
Why won't you believe
Your softness and stubbornness
Has caused me to grieve
Still pining for someone
Who can never come back
I know that's so
But I can't tell my heart that

I can't tell my heart
That you are no good
I'd give this world
If only I could
You cheated and lied
Then you left me flat
Oh yes it's true
But I can't tell my heart that

My heart still cries out
It wasn't long ago
That we were together
And you said you loved me so
Oh somewhere out there
It don't matter where at
To you I'm forgotten
But I can't tell my heart that

Oh, I can't tell my heart
That you are no good
I'd give this world
If only I could
You cheated and lied
Then you left me flat
Oh yes it's true
But I can't tell my heart that
