For My Heart's Sake

With music playing softly and lights burning low

It's easy to ask for a dance

And we stray a little further to walk in the dark

Feeling the sweatest romance

But when I look into my memory

Then I loose all my nerve

Something always gets in the way

A closer look into my memory

And then the voice will be heard

There was pain once before

So I have to be sure

For my heart's sake

It's natural occurrence when love has gone wrong

To build up your wall of defence

So I watch you through my barrier hoping to find

A person who holds no pretence

But when I look into my memory

Then I loose all my nerve

Something always gets in the way

A closer look into my memory

And then the voice will be heard

There was pain once before

So I have to be sure

For my heart's sake

Voices are saying possible doubt

Gently debating, checking you out

Need a decision unfortunately

It's better to be safe then sorry

But when I look into my memory

Then I loose all my nerve

Something always gets in the way

A closer look into my memory

And then the voice will be heard

There was pain once before

So I have to be sure

For my heart's sake
