The Heart Won't Lie Lyrics

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 of the nights I tried to pick up the phone
So scared of who might be answering

You try to live your life from day to day
But seeing you across the room tonight
Just gives me away

[Chorus]
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

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?

You try to live your life from day to day
But seeing you across the room tonight
Just gives me away

[Chorus]

To me this songs says, that you can try and tell yourself that you don't love a person, but your heart will tell your mind otherwise, and long after your person is gone for whatever reasons, if it was true love, you will hurt forever.......

I believe the song centers around the military's stand on fraternization of Officers and non-com personnel. She was an officer and he was a non-com drill officer. There is a sequence showing the two on leave and being together, a direct violation. In order to carry on with their military careers they can't be together. The love each other and truly would like to be together so they have to hide the love they have for each other, thus The Heart won't lie.

HELLO... you are totally WRONG. Thats ridiculous. Read the words you dummy.
