Heart Of Hearts

(album: High Lonesome - 1991)

I found myself
In a cross condition
Maybe it was her
Maybe it was me
Somethin's wrong
There was something missing
I couldn't stand to stay
So I had to leave.

A half a tank of gas
Brought me this distance
Half a mind to run
Got me this far
There's a woman willing
Where there ain't no witness
'Cept the one that lives
In my heart of hearts.

My heart of hearts
Won't lie to me
It won't tell me things
That I can't believe
I better stop this thing
Before it starts
'Cause it don't feel right
To my heart of hearts.

I could be tasting
Stolen kisses
But that might
Tear my world apart
When it all comes down
To my wish of wishes
I'd have to go with
My heart of hearts.

My heart of hearts
Won't lie to me
It won't tell me things
That I can't believe
I better stop this thing
Before it starts
'Cause it don't feel right
To my heart of hearts.

I better stop this thing
Before it starts
'Cause it don't feel right
To my heart of hearts.

My heart of hearts
Won't lie to me...
