Nudie and the Turks - If A Heart Could Tell lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

If a heart could tell the difference

Between a heart and what's brand new

One hadn't been around, had been better broken and bruised

Then a heart surely turns in a rock

Before it took the chance and fell

But it can't, so it will, a heart can't tell

(Verse 2)

Didn't even hear the difference between lips that were tellin' lies

If lips would tell it straight there'll be a lot less people cry

And a mark surely turnin' raw before it'll let the slips get near

We believe what we want because an ear can't hear

(Chorus)

If a heart could tell and an ear could hear

That would take away all of the fun and we would surely disappear

(Verse 3)

They say the heart is the muscle of love

It's gotta work hard every day, build it up

Tear it down, make it strong before the pain

Every (?) say we can tell it what to do

Then the heart would be of stone

There'd be no more me and you

(Guitar solo: the kid's got spunk!)

(Chorus)

If a heart could tell and an ear could hear

That would take away all of the fun and we would surely disappear

(Verse 1)

If a heart could tell the difference

Between a heart and what's brand new

One hadn't been around, had been better broken and bruised

Then a heart surely turns in a rock

Before it took the chance and fell

But it can't, so it will, a heart can't tell

No, it can't, so it will, because a heart can't tell

I guess it's lucky for me that a heart can't tell
