Don't Speak of My Heart Lyrics

Artist: Gerry Rafferty
Album: On a Wing and a Prayer

Donâ‚¬â„¢t speak of my heart, it hurts too much -- hurts to touch
Iâ‚¬â„¢m writing the book each and every day
Take a look at my face, I still need -- I still bleed
Iâ‚¬â„¢ve been running on empty since you went away.

The spirit world looks down on us
Sad that weâ‚¬â„¢re apart
So please donâ‚¬â„¢t speak of my heart.

Whenever we talk she says hang on -- just hang on
Meanwhile Iâ‚¬â„¢m drowning in the pouring rain
And each time we meet thereâ‚¬â„¢s a sad farewell -- sad farewell
She tells me someday Iâ‚¬â„¢m gonna love again.

The way that she walked out on me
Still tears me apart
So please donâ‚¬â„¢t speak of my heart.

Every dayâ‚¬â„¢s an endless maze of dreams that fade and die
No one believed we were saying â‚¬ËœGoodbyeâ‚¬â„¢
And every night I think of you Iâ‚¬â„¢m still left wondering why
I canâ‚¬â„¢t believe that weâ‚¬â„¢re saying goodbye.

And when I wake up in the morning
And wonder where Iâ‚¬â„¢m going to
It all came without a warning
Whatâ‚¬â„¢s a man supposed to do?

Donâ‚¬â„¢t let your heart break down
Donâ‚¬â„¢t let your heart break down.

Donâ‚¬â„¢t speak of my heart, it hurts too much -- it hurts to touch
Iâ‚¬â„¢m writing the book each and every day
Take a look at my face, I still need -- I still bleed
Iâ‚¬â„¢ve been running on empty since you went away.

The spirit world looks down on us,
Sad that weâ‚¬â„¢re apart
Donâ‚¬â„¢t wanna talk about it -- donâ‚¬â„¢t make me think about it
So please donâ‚¬â„¢t speak of my heart.

by philip jackson on 12/30/2008 6:13pm one of the most beautiful popular melodies I have ever listened to combined with lyrics that are up with Rafferty's plaintif best - is it still available? p.s it get's played occasionally by our Terry Wogen on BBC 2 radio
