The Heart Wont Lie Reba McEntire/ Vince Gill
Looking back over the years Of All the things I've always meant to say But 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
Looking back over the years is about all I've had time for the last lil while. Did i hold back any words i should have said, would anything have changed where we stand. Part of me wishes the final words you had from me came face to face rather than a letter left on your door, but we both know that moment would have been worse face to face. How many nights did i want to call, but i didn't, not scared of who might be answering, but how they might answer. You try to live your life from day to day But seeing you across the room tonight Just gives me away I try to live my life from day to day, putting on the show of being strong, back in control. I walked back into work yesterday with everyone asking the same questions, and i was honest, but i held back the hurt and the pain. Yet everyday i see you still so close by sometimes and it all comes back, and i remember how i feel.........
'Cause 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 My heart won't lie. Through the anger, the hurt and the loss, almost nothing has changed. Call me a fool, call me stupid or desperate, but all the feelings are still here in my broken heart. I've tried to show that I'm over the loss, that i can move on, but the heart wont 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?
Long after this time, i hope i'll still hold a pleasant place in your memories. Long after all this is past, i hope i will still be seen as once being a friend and a good friend. I know it will never be like it was, that time has past, but i hope someday, you'll come back to me in some small way. You try to live your life from day to day But seeing you across the room tonight Just gives me away 'Cause 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
