Don´t Speak Of My Heart

Don't speak of my heart, it hurts too much -- hurts to touch
 I'm writing the book each and every day
 Take a look at my face, I still need -- I still bleed
 I've been running on empty since you went away.
 The spirit world looks down on us
 Sad that we're apart
 So please don't speak of my heart.
 Whenever we talk she says hang on -- just hang on
 Meanwhile I'm drowning in the pouring rain
 And each time we meet there's a sad farewell -- sad farewell
 She tells me someday I'm gonna love again.
 The way that she walked out on me
 Still tears me apart
 So please don't speak of my heart.
 Every day's an endless maze of dreams that fade and die
 No one believed we were saying 'Goodbye'
 And every night I think of you I'm still left wondering why
 I can't believe that we're saying goodbye.
 And when I wake up in the morning
 And wonder where I'm going to
 It all came without a warning
 What's a man supposed to do?
 Don't let your heart break down
 Don't let your heart break down.
 Don't speak of my heart, it hurts too much -- it hurts to touch
 I'm writing the book each and every day
 Take a look at my face, I still need -- I still bleed
 I've been running on empty since you went away.
 The spirit world looks down on us,
 Sad that we're apart
 Don't wanna talk about it -- don't make me think about it
 So please don't speak of my heart.
