Be Still

After so many years tryin' to set it free

The pain seems to fade but it never leaves

The memories haunt me and I wish they'd let me be

I gambled on love and it tore me apart

Be still, be still, be still, my broken heart

Be still my heart!

I wasn't born wise but I learned this much

Though you took all I gave it was never enough

There was a time I'd have died for your soul, your strength, your touch

But I'll leave it behind, try to make a new start

Be still, be still, be still, my broken heart

Let the pain fade away

It was the heat of the moment in the heart of a dream

You lit fire to my soul and you said you'd never leave

It's tearin' me up, baby, where have you been?

Oh, please, oh please, oh please! please just understand me

And what this nonsense means. oh, yeah!

I gave up my dreams to let you inside

Boy, you sure took my momma;s little boy for a ride

I'll never know how I coulda ben so blind

Well, I gambled on love and it tore me apart

Oh! be still, be still, be still, my broken heart

Be still, be still, be still, my broken heart

Be still my heart! my broken heart

Let the pain fade away!

Just a small town floozy a 'name' a backwater lucy,

Drivin' me down and down and down and down (be still my heart) oh yeah!!

That's what I get for bein' lazy, woman's drivin' me crazy

Drivin' me down and down and down and down and down (be still my heart)
