[Verse 1]
Before you turn and walk away forever
Before you say it's all been said
Take a moment to remember
The good times we had

[Verse 2]
Before you say I'm really very special
Then run to another's arms
Won't you give me just a moment
To right this wrong?

[Chorus]
I can't tell my heart who to love
I can't tell my heart what to feel
You can see why I don't trust in love
I can't tell my heart when love's enough

[Verse 3]
When you love someone so much, it hurts
You will learn to love the pain
It's a funny thing that happens
That I can't explain

[Chorus 1]
I can't tell my heart who to love
I can't tell my heart what to feel
You can see why I don't trust in love
I can't tell my heart when love's enough
[Verse 4]
There's only one thing that will really hurt me
Create a wound that would never heal
Just a few words that if spoken
I refuse to hear

[Chorus 1]
I can't tell my heart who to love
I can't tell my heart what to feel
You can see why I don't trust in love
I can't tell my heart when love's enough

[Chorus 2]
I can't help myself though I have tried
You know I'll love you till the day I die
You can see why I think love is unfair
I can't tell my heart how much you care
