Lyrics
But My Heart Told My
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.
As the winter winds litter london with lonely hearts
Oh the warmth in your eyes swept me into your arms
Was it love or fear of the cold that led us through the night?
Over every kiss your beauty trumped my doubt
And my head told my heart
"let love grow"
But my heart told my head
"this time no
This time no"
We'll be washed and buried one day my girl
And the time we were given will be left for the world
The flesh that lived and loved will be eaten by plague
So let the memories be good for those who stay
And my head told my heart
"let love grow"
But my heart told my head
"this time no"
Yes, my heart told my head
"this time no
This time no"
Oh the shame that sent me off from the guard that i once loved
Was the same that sent me into your arms
Oh and pestilence is won when you are lost and i am gone
And no hope, no hope will overcome
And my head told my heart
"let love grow"
And my heart told my head
"this time no"
Yes, my heart told my head
"this time no
This time no"
And if your strife strikes at your sleep
Remember spring swaps snow for leaves
You'll be happy and wholesome again
When the city clears and sun ascends
And my head told my heart
"let love grow"
But my heart told my head
"this time no"
And my head told my heart
"let love grow"
But my heart told my head
"this time no
This time no"
