Heart of Gold

You can't explain what you want to say
You try but you keep on looking away
She said I don't know if I feel the same
You'd better tell me now before it all unfolds
You're a sweet girl with a heart of gold
But I'm sure you know
That when it all comes down and you can't go back
You wish you'd never lied
And you're sat on your own at home crying
Why couldn't we have tried
Ooohoooooh
You'd better listen this time, I don't want to let you go
I'll forgive you tonight but more than you'll ever know
We carried on, everything's gonna be fine
No it ain't, not with a record of mine
Cos you can't carry on lying to yourself
It's not right, and everybody else knows what you're looking for
And I know what you're looking for
But it seems so far away
But when it all comes down and you can't go back
You wish you'd never lied
When you're sat on your own at home crying
Why couldn't we have tried
Ooohoooooh
You'd better listen this time, I don't want to let you go
I'll forgive you tonight but more than you'll ever know
Yeah more than you'll ever know
Your mind is working overtime
The failed attempts to toe the line
Just pass me by
But nobody gets me like you do
I'm all for open arms, the inside joke,
The deafening silence punchline!
Yeah more than you'll ever know
You'd better listen this time, I don't want to let you go.
