You think you've heard this before I'll try and say it differently As long as it comes naturally to me It's been makin' me sad Cause I can't find a better way To speak the words I want to say to you Know I love you Know I need you That I want you to know I won't you let you down No I can't let go And I want you to see Everyday I wear my heart on my sleeve On my sleeve It's been driving me mad Consistent tones and constant drones Keep pulling me back inside my head Nothing matters at all The world will keep on spinning around All these feelings keep on pouring out Oh I love you Oh I need you And I want you to know I won't let you down No I can't let go And I want you to see Everyday I wear my heart on my sleeve I try to write the words down Before they're lost and won't come out Oh please help me save my soul And I want you to know I won't let you down No I can't let go And I want you to see Everyday I wear my heart on my sleeve Heart on my sleeve Heart on my sleeve, heart on my sleeve No I can't let it go, can't let it go Oh I want you to know Won't let you down Everyday, yeah, I can't let go I wear my heart on my sleeve I wear my heart on my sleeve
