What Will I Tell My Heart — Vanessa Williams

Ill try to explain to friends, dear

The reasons we two are apart

I know what to tell our friends, dear

But what can I tell my heart

Its easy to say to strangers

That we played the game from the start

Its easy to lie to strangers

But why tell a lie to your heart

When I smile to hide all the tears inside

What an ache it will be bring

Then Ill wander home to a telephone

That forgot how to ring

I could say youll soon be back, dear

To fool the whole town may be smart

Ill tell them youll soon be back, dear

But what can I tell my heart

When I smile to hide all the tears inside

What an ache it will be bring

Then Ill wander home to a telephone

That forgot how to ring

I could say youll soon be back, dear

To fool the whole town may be smart

Ill tell them youll soon be back, dear

But what can I tell my heart

Oh, what will I tell my heart
