Heart of mine be still,
E                                                              B
You can play with fire but you'll get the bill.

Don't let her know

Don't let her know that you love her.

Don't be a fool, don't be blind

Heart of mine.


Heart of mine go back home,
You got no reason to wander, you got no reason to roam.
Don't let her see
Don't let her see that you need her.
Don't put yourself over the line
Heart of mine.

(Instrumental verse)

Heart of mine go back where you been,
It'll only be trouble for you if you let her in.
Don't let her hear
Don't let her hear where you going.
Don't let her know she's so fine
Heart of mine.

(Instrumental verse)

Heart of mine so malicious and so full of guile,
Give you an inch and you'll take a mile.
Don't let yourself fall
Don't let yourself stumble.
If you can't do the time, don't do the crime
Heart of mine.


Additional verse not sung on the original album.

Heart of mine you know that she'll never be true,
She'll only give to others the love that she's gotten from you.
Don't let her know
Don't let her know where you're going.
Don't untie the ties that bind
Heart of mine.
