Be Still My Heart

(album: Out Of The Blue - 1992)

Hey looky there
See that pretty girl coming
She's playing me for a fool
It's 'cause I never make no secret
Of my desire, it's true

So I pulled out my card
And lit up a smoke
Hey baby what's happening I stammered
And then we heard this pounding
Sounded like a hammer

Whoa you gotta be still (my heart)
You gotta be still my heart
You gotta be cool today
Or she will know

Oh ya know I heard about these guys over in India
I hear they can slow down their hearts with meditation
But you see whenever I look at my sweet baby
I just get these p-p-palpatations

And I swear do you know Indian boys over there
Ain't seen nothing like her yellow hair
And if they smell her perfume
I swear to God they'd lose their nerves man

There is a time
To just be cool
And a time
To let her know
There is a time to read
And a time to sew

You gotta be cool
Or she will know
I love her so
That's right
