Let's Call a Heart a Heart

When we are in a friendly situation
My conversation may not be smart
But if we've to have a perfect understanding
Let's call a heart a heart

There are words that should be whispered gently
That's evidently the way to start
If I tell you what my dreams have been demanding
Let's call a heart a heart

Can I prove how I yearn
Just by the turn of a phrase?
Can I keep my control
When all my soul is aflame?

Maybe you would call a true confession
And indiscretion on someone's part
But if I'm to say how madly I adore you
Let's call a heart a heart
