(close The Door) Take Your Heart

(Allee Willis, David Lasley)

Let it go without a word
Or you won't deny the whispering
That I have heard
Here I am alone with me
And all the lies you told me
Won't change what I see

Close the door and take your heart
While I'm strong enough to make another start
Oh oh, leave my pride and take your heart
Give it to whoever is in your arms

Yeah, take your heart
Take it

To the world, nothing's changed
But I'd rather be a stranger
And avoid the pain
Use me up, let me down
And when you need affection,
I'm nowhere around

Close the door and take your heart
While I'm strong enough to make another start
Oh oh, leave my pride and take your heart
Give it to whoever is in your arms

Yeah, take your heart
Take it

Maybe one day things will change
But for now there is only one thing I can say

Close the door and take your heart
While I'm strong enough to make another start
Leave my pride and take your heart
Give it to whoever is in your arms
