This Is How My Heart Heard

This is how my heart heard

That little thing in tears, they call the truth

It said, "Be done with her, she's done with you"

This is how my heart heard

This is how my arms burn

That used to hold her tight until the dawn

And now they weep to find that she is gone

This is how my heart heard

I forgot the taste of fears

And how they haunt the lips you're kissing

And how the song could waste its tears

On someone who is missing

And how I shed such tears but never cry

This is how I want her

And how I kiss her lips and taste goodbye

This is how I want her

I forgot the taste of fears

And how they haunt the lips you're kissing

And how love's just a waste of tears

On someone who is missing

This is how I want her

And how I shed such tears but never cry

And how I tasted lips that kissed goodbye

This is how my heart heard

This is how my heart heard

This is how my heart heard
