I'm trying to explain to our old friends, dear |
|
The reasons we two are apart |
|
I know what to tell our friends, dear |
|
But what will I tell my heart? |
|
It's easy to say to strangers |
|
That we played the game from the start |
|
It's easy to lie to strangers |
|
But what will I tell my heart? |
|
When I smile to hide all the tears inside |
|
What an ache it will be bring |
|
Then I'll wander home to a telephone |
|
That forgot how to ring, ring, ring |
|
I'm telling you'll soon be back, dear |
|
To fool the whole town may be smart |
|
I'll tell them you'll soon be back, dear |
|
But what will I tell my heart? |
|
When I smile to hide all the tears inside |
|
What an ache it will be bring |
|
Then I'll wander home to a telephone |
|
That forgot how to ring, ring, ring |
|
I could say you'll soon be back, dear |
|
To fool the whole town may be smart |
|
I'll tell them you'll soon be back, dear |
|
But what will I tell my heart? |
