Lyrics
Heart Knows The Truth
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.
A man only sees what he wants to see I saw you loving me
No ties to unwind no promises to bind when the dawn set us free
One night of moonlight and roses was all that I saw in you
A man only sees what he wants to see but the heart knows the truth
Oh the heart knows the truth
A man only hears what he wants to hear I heard me say goodbye
I didn't listen to what my heart whispered I still wonder why
I told myself it didn't matter that I'd forget about you
A man only hears what he wants to hear but the heart knows the truth
Ooh oh the heart knows the truth ooh the heart knows the truth
A man only sees what he wants to see now I see you in my dreams
A man only hears what he wants to hear I hear you call my name
Moonlight like Mexican silver turns the red rose to blue
The night wind whispers you'll always be mine but the heart knows the truth
Ooh oh the heart knows the truth ooh the heart knows the truth
Oh the heart knows the truth oh the heart knows the truth
