Tracy Chapman - Matters of The Heart текст песни

I lose my head

From time to time

I make a fool of myself

In matters of the heart

We should have been holding each other

Instead we talked

I make a fool of myself

In matters of the heart

But I asked before

Your reply was kind and polite

One wants more

When ones denied

I make a fool of myself

In matters of the heart

I wont call it love

But it feels good to have passion in my life

If theres a battle

I hope my head always defers to my heart

In matters of the heart

I guess Im crazy to think

I can give you what you dont want

I make a fool of myself

In matters of the heart

I wish that I had the power

To make these feelings stop

I lose all self control

In matters of the heart

I cant believe

Its so hard to find someone

To give affection to

And from whom you can receive

I guess its just the draw of the cards

In matters of the heart

You caught me off guard

Somehow you reached me

Where I thought I had nothing left inside

Ive learned my lesson Ive been edified

In matters of the heart

Ive spent my nights

Where the sleeping dogs lie

Not by your side

It feels so lonely

Once again Ive left to much to chance

In matters of the heart

Here I sit

Im feeling sorry for myself

Its quite a sight

But I have you to thank

For reminding me

Were all alone in this world

And in matters of the heart

Im already missing you

Although we wont say good byes

Until tomorrow afternoon

Maybe when and if I see you again

Well see eye to eye

In matters of the heart

I have no harsh words for you

I have no tears to cry

If the moon were full

Id be howling inside

It only hurts

In matters of the heart

If today were my birthday

Id be reborn

As brontes bird a bird that could fly

And all accounts would be settled

In matters of the heart

Matters of the heart
