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 one´s denied
I make a fool of myself
In matters of the heart

I won´t call it love
But it feels good to have passion in my life
If there´s a battle
I hope my head always defers to my heart
In matters of the heart

I guess I´m crazy to think
I can give you what you don´t 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 can´t believe
It´s so hard to find someone
To give affection to
And from whom you can receive
I guess it´s 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
I´ve learned my lesson I´ve been edified
In matters of the heart

I´ve spent my nights
Where the sleeping dogs lie
Not by your side
It feels so lonely
Once again I´ve left to much to chance
In matters of the heart

Here I sit
I´m feeling sorry for myself
It´s quite a sight
But I have you to thank
For reminding me
We´re all alone in this world
And in matters of the heart

I´m already missing you
Although we won´t say good-byes
Until tomorrow afternoon
Maybe when and if I see you again
We´ll 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
I´d be howling inside
It only hurts
In matters of the heart

If today were my birthday
I´d be reborn
As Bronte´s bird a bird that could fly
And all accounts would be settled
In matters of the heart

Matters of the heart
