The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Taking time you got by these defenses of mine
Though i tried not to let you slip through
And when you worked your way to the back of my mind
It was too late to stop loving you
For my eyes grew accustomed to looking at you
And my arms found a body they hungered to hold
And the rest of my senses surrendered to you
But my heart was the last one to know
Then my eyes saw the warnings they couldn’t believe
And my lips felt your kiss growing cold
And my ears heard the stories but kept them from me
So my heart was the last one to know
Now my eyes finally learned to stop looking for you
And my arms slowly turned to another to hold
They could sense you were something too good to be true
But my heart was the last one to know
Yes, the heart is last one to know
