The Heart Won't Lie [Duet with Vince Gill] Lyrics
Looking back over the years
Of all the things I've always meant to say
But the 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 (ooh)
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 (ooh)
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 (ooh)
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 (ooh)
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 (ooh)
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 (ooh)
The heart won't lie
The heart won't lie
Of all the things I've always meant to say
But the 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
But seeing you across the room tonight
Just gives me away
Sometimes life gets in the way
But there's one thing that won't change (ooh)
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 (ooh)
The heart won't lie
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?
But seeing you across the room tonight
Just gives me away
Sometimes life gets in the way
But there's one thing that won't change (ooh)
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 (ooh)
The heart won't lie
