vanessa williams - what will i tell my heart lyrics

i'll try to explain to friends, dear
the reason we two are apart
i know what to tell our friends, dear
but what can 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 stranger
but why tell a lie to your heart

when i smile to hide all the tears inside
what an ache it will bring
then i'll wander home to a telephone
that forgot how to 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 can i tell my heart

when i smile to hide all the tears inside
what an ache it will bring
then i'll wander home to a telephone
that forgot how to 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 can i tell my heart

oh, what will i tell my heart
