What Will I Tell My Heart Lyrics - Fats Domino

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?
