Explain That to a Heart

My heart won't let go of you

I try and try to tell it to

You can tell the rest of me why we fell apart

But how do you explain that?

How do you explain that to a heart?

(What do you say? Where do you start?)

(It seems nobody ever gets that far)

Well, I wonder, oh, I wonder

What it would be like

(He wrote it down, but he later found)

(That he only thought about it when she wasn't around)

To be under the covers

With you every night

(It's like a hive where you never arrive)

(You keep buzzing around until you're barely alive)

And I dream, dream about you

(There's a place where love is safe)

(And she knew it from the moment that she saw his face)

That I could live, live without you

(He knows someday that he's gonna die)

(But he won't stop living if he keeps on trying)

Oh, and my heart won't let go of you (He can't stand it)

But I'll try and try to tell it to

You can tell the rest of me why we fell apart (There's no reasons)

But how do you explain that?

How do you explain that to a heart?

(What do you say? Where do you start?)

(It seems nobody ever gets that far)

Well, it's over, yeah, it's over

I'm gonna be just fine

(Late night at the Inn Seaside)

(With a bag of goodies and a bottle of wine)

Well, this beating in my chest has got the best of me

It's messing with my mind, all the time

Even I realize (I'm infected)

My heart won't let go of you (It's injected)

But I'll try and try to tell it to (But you wrecked it)

You can tell the rest of me why we fell apart

But how do you explain that?

How do you explain that to a heart?

(What do you say? Where do you start?)

(It seems nobody ever gets that far)

And I dream, dream about you

That I could live, live without you

(He knows someday that he's gonna die)

(But he won't stop living if he keeps on trying)

Oh, and my heart won't let go of you (It's on lockdown)

But I'll try and try to tell it to (He can't hear you)

You can tell the rest of me why we fell apart (There's no reasons)

But how do you explain that?

How do you explain that to a heart?

(What do you say? Where do you start?)

(It seems nobody ever got that far)

Oh, how do you explain that?
