Richard Marx - Can’t Lie to My Heart lyrics

I whispered you words I thought I'd never say

We played the game, but then we tossed the rules away

Could deny it

Justify it

But we both know that we went too far

Oh, I can feel you and I need you

No matter wherever you are

I don't wanna watch my love come crashing down

But I can't lie to my heart

I don't really want your memory hanging 'round

But baby I just can't lie to my heart

I have loved you longer than you've even known

When you hurt, I hurt, I'm your flesh and you're my bone

If I could only

Be two people

Darlin' I swear we'd both be with you

Oh, I know I'm selfish, but I'm helpless

I want you, and nothing else will do

I don't wanna watch my love come crashing down

But I can't lie to my heart.

I don't really want your memory hanging 'round

Ripping me right apart.

I won't pretend anymore

Been hiding too long

I won't go on like before

I'm not that strong

Oh, I can feel it when I'm near you

It's not healthy to need you this way

I try to fight it, get inside it

But this pain is stronger than me and it won't go away

I don't wanna watch my love come crashing down

But I can't lie to my heart

I don't really want your memory hanging 'round

Ripping me right apart

I don't wanna watch my love come crashing down

But I can't lie to my heart

I don't really want your memory hanging 'round

Not anymore

I can't lie anymore

Baby, I can't

Baby, I can't

No, baby, I just can't lie to my heart
