The Heart Wants What It Wants Lyrics

The Heart Wants What It Wants lyrics

You say one thing and there I go turning around again

 Working things over better left unsaid

 Spinning around in my head

 Talking a moment

 Too personally

 

 I have told you just half the words

 I've wanted to give you

 Fear of rejection keeps my heart at bay

 Feelings I'd rather not say

 I'd rather have you close

 Than never at all

 

 But every now and then

 When my world is closing in

 I feel you breezin' through my mind

 I can attempt to close my eyes

 I can avoid the wrong or right

 But something deep inside

 Says my heart wants what it wants

 

 Baby

 Stay away

 Do the right thing

 I know I should run

 But my heart wants what it wants

 Baby

 Stay away

 Do the right thing

 I know I should run

 You know the heart wants what it wants

 

 You do one thing and

 Then I go

 Always imagining

 Reciprocating feelings that aren't there

 Sometimes I think you're aware

 Your body languge it gives you away

 Maybe I should run

 Turn my back

 Head for the sun

 Feelings left to come undone

 

 Maybe you like what's goin' on

 Deep down inside I know it's wrong

 I know I should run

 But the heart wants what it wants

 

 Baby

 Stay away

 Do the right thing

 I know I should run

 But my heart wants what it wants

 Baby

 Stay away

 Do the right thing

 I know I should run

 You know the heart wants what it wants

 

 It's not even a love affair

 I'm makin' plans with the ghost of what was there

 I've become a desperate fool

 And it's all because of you

 

 Baby

 Stay away

 Do the right thing

 I know I should run

 But my heart wants what it wants

 Baby

 Stay away

 Do the right thing

 I know I should run

 You know the heart wants what it wants

 

 Baby

 Stay away

 Do the right thing

 I know I should run

 But my heart wants what it wants

 Baby

 Stay away

 Do the right thing baby

 Because the heart wants

 What the heart needs

 Can the heart get

 What the heart wants
