What Will I Tell My Heart?
I'll try to explain to friends, dearThe reason we two are apart,I know what to tell our friends, dear,But what will I tell my heart?
It's easy to say to strangersThat we played a game from the start.It's easy to lie to strangers,But what will I tell my heart?
When I smile to hide all the tears insideWhat an ache it would bring.Then I'd wander home to a telephoneThat forgot how to ring.
I could say you'll soon be back, dear,To fool the whole town may be smart,I'll tell them you'll soon be back, dear,But what will I tell my heart?
