Be Still My Heart Lyrics — John Wesley Harding

(gordon kennedy/randy thomas)

Here she comes walkin
I'll be casual and say hello
Now we're small talkin
But I don't wanna let my feelings show
How I love that girl and no one else
But I keep saying to myself

Be still my heart
Don't let it show
Just make believe that
You don't love her so
Be quiet now
And let her go
She'll never hurt you
If she never knows
Love can tear you apart
Be still my heart

It's a high wire
That I'm walkin each and every day
Balance my desire
With the fear that I could fall from grace
I don't wanna give myself away
So help me keep my secret safe

Be still my heart
Don't let it show
Just make believe that
You don't love her so
Be quiet now
And let her go
She'll never hurt you
If she never knows
Love can tear you apart
Be still my heart

Wonder if she has a secret she won't tell
Right this moment is she thinkin to herself

Be still my heart
Don't let it show
Just make believe that
You don't love him so
Be quiet now
And let him go
He'll never hurt you
If he never knows
Love can tear you apart
Be still my heart
Be still my heart
Be still my heart
