Last night we tried to touch but we never got close 
Last night we tried to talk, the words got caught in our throats 
When we finally fell asleep 
We couldn't have been further apart 

Look me in the heart 
If you think that love is blind 
Baby look me in the heart 
And you'll see that I'm so crazy about you baby 
And it's not in my mind 
Can't you look me in the heart 
Look me in the heart 

You try to say that I'm hiding from you 
You act like a spy always looking for clues 
You've read about my past 
But why don't we try to make a new start 

Look me in the heart 
If you think that love is blind 
Baby look me in the heart 
And you'll see that I'm so crazy about you baby 
And it's not in my mind 
Can't you look me in the heart 
Look me in the heart 

Remember how good we used to be together 
Remember baby, so be tender baby 
Remember the love we said would last forever 
I know we can make it like that again
