BILLIE HOLIDAY - SAYS MY HEART lyrics

rate me

Frank Loesser / Burton Lane

Fall in love, tall in love

Says my heart,

it's romance, take a chance

Says my heart

But each time that I'm almost in your arms

This old schoolteacher brain of mine

Keeps bringing in false alarms

Then my head rolls instead and I'm wise

To the scheme of that gleam in your eyes

So I kiss and run

But the moment we're apart

"Oh! you fool, that was love"

Says my heart

Then my head rolls instead and I'm wise

To the scheme of that gleam in your eyes

So I kiss and run

But the moment we're apart

"Oh! you fool, that was love"

Says my heart.

It wasn't the moon, it wasn't the stars

"That was love!"

Says my heart
