The Heart Won't Lie Lyrics - Icon - Reba Mcentire

(kim carnes/donna terry weiss) 

Looking back over the years 

Of all the things I've always meant to say 

But words didn't come easily 

So many times through empty fears 

Of all of the nights I tried to pick up the phone 

So scared of who might be answering 

You try to live your life from day to day 

But seeing you across the room tonight 

Just gives me away

Chorus: 

Cause the heart won't lie 

Sometimes life gets in the way 

But there's one thing that won't change 

I know I've tried 

The heart won't lie 

You can live your alibi 

Who can see you're lost inside a foolish disguise 

The heart won't lie 

Long after tonight 

Will you still hear my voice through the radio 

Old desires make us act carelessly 

Long after tonight, after the fire 

After the scattered ashes fly 

Through the four winds blown and gone 

Will you come back to me?

You try to live your life from day to day 

But seeing you across the room tonight 

Just gives me away 

Repeat chorus:
