| A HEART KNOWS NOT |
| A heart knows not about the rules of love It's not concerned with such things A heart only knows that it needs to give And the joy that sharing can bring A heart is carefree and light, like a child The mind, like a parent, is sober A heart delights when a new love is found The mind worries about the pain of when it's over A heart knows not whether someone's your type It will lead you to them nonetheless To "follow your heart" is often wise advice For it usually knows what is best A heart knows not when to let go It can go on loving for years No matter what hurtful things have been done A heart holds the weight of many tears A heart can be broken, we all know that's true But with time it always will mend A heart knows not to shy away from love It seeks love again and again The mind remembers the pain from before A heart knows not you were bleeding While the memory of the pain can paralyze the mind A heart only knows to go on beating When it comes to matters of the heart Don't be a smug intellectual A heart that knows not, isn't dumb after all It knows far more than you expect it will So follow your heart wherever it may lead It knows things you can't comprehend It's the source of what makes the world go around So remember, your heart is your friend |
