The Heart Wants What It Wants

You say one thing
And there I go
Turning around again
Working things over
Better left unsaid
Spinning around in my head
Taking a moment too personally
I have told you
Just half the words
I've Wanted to give to you
Fear of rejection keeps my heart at bay
Feelings I'd rather not say
I'd rather have you close
Than never at all

But every now and then
When my world is closing in
I feel you breezing through my mind
I can attempt to close my eyes
I can avoid the wrong or right
But something deep inside says my heart wants what it wants

Baby stay away
Do the right thing
I know I should run
But my heart wants what it wants
Baby stay away
Do the right thing
Baby, You know the heart wants what it wants

You do one thing
And there I go…always imagining
Reciprocating feelings that aren't there
Sometimes I think you're aware
Your body language it gives you away

Maybe I should run
Turn my back head for the sun
Feelings left to come undone
Maybe you like what's going on
Deep inside I know its wrong
I know I should run
But my heart wants what it wants

(Repeat Chorus)

Even though I know
You know it's not even a love affair
I'm making plans with the ghost of what was there
I've become a desperate fool
And it's all because of you, baby

(Repeat Chorus)
