Can't Fight the Heart

"Did I read the signs wrong? Did I not see? I never met anyone so beautifully
That night you showed me everything, I thought you'd trust me."
I never once led you on, I was happy, but something didn't belong, understand me
Though you are more than everything
This fear blinds me.
And I would take years of you, how you love me
But if it's real I can't stand anymore losing
I'm playing that role, saying those lines
I can't believe you said

"You can't fight the heart", can't fight the heart, that's what you said to me
And I don't know how long I'll take to stop fighting
"You can't fight the heart", can't fight the heart, that's what you said to me
And I don't know how long I'll take to stop fighting

Give it one day and see that you're crying, I never expected me so denying
Those ones that left me made loving terrifying.
Used to being alone like so many, when people are lost they go high and running
A heart afraid and doubting knows shame and hiding.
And I just took years of that, each one dropped me,
I fell and they stared and spat and forgot me
Please say you get now why I'm afraid.
I can't believe you said

"You can't fight the heart", can't fight the heart, that's what you said to me
And I don't know how long I'll take to stop fighting
"You can't fight the heart", can't fight the heart, that's what you said to me
And I don't know how long I'll take to stop fighting

Refusing to ever leave, you fought the worst of me
Victory how you loved me
And I loved you, too, that's how I knew
That was all that you needed to do
Without any fighting
You won more than you knew

"You can't fight the heart", can't fight the heart, that's what you said to me
And I don't know how long I'll take to stop fighting
"You can't fight the heart", can't fight the heart, that's what you said to me
And I don't know how long I'll take to stop fighting
