Carly Simon Love You By Heart Lyrics

Love You By Heart Lyrics

(Carly Simon/Libby Titus/Jacob Brackman)

The lies that you tell will leave you alone
They`ll keep you down,
they`ll catch you and trip you up
Keep you hangin` around

The habit is old - you don`t need it anymore
Go on and kiss it goodbye
`Cause you got me, and I can see
Who you really are
I want to show you my heart
I want to know you by heart
And love you by heart

I`m right here beside you
there`s nobody else to set you straight
To shake you, to let you know
That it`s still not too late -
I want to show you my heart
I want to know you by heart
And love you by heart

Don`t make up stories,
I know you by your eyes
I think I know what`s inside

The streets you`ve been on
Will leave you out in the cold
But you know I care,
And years from now
We`ll both look down from the top of the stairs -
Here I`ve shown you my heart
I want to know you by heart
And love you by heart
