Heart Has to Know

from The Hour Before by Elaine Romanelli

/

lyrics

You’ve been turning up a lot
Smiling your hellos
You’ve been mumbling sweet words
Staring at your toes
You finally bought me dinner
We drank too much wine
Now I suspect you’re thinking:
‘Your place or mine’

I want your hands on my body
But my heart isn’t ready
I want your lips on my skin but I won’t
Ask you in tonight
‘Cause my heart has to know that it’s right

A little bird is trilling
There’s more to this than lust
A little bird has mentioned
You’re someone I could trust
And anyway it’s thrilling
Just to hold your hand
Why skip all the little joys
And risk a one-night stand?

I want your hands on my body…

I confess I am terrified by the flash I see
You and I, several years gone by
We appear to be quite happy
Together

Damn, your eyes are gorgeous
Shimmering and bright
Maybe it’s too early to be calling it a night
Touch my arm again, please
I can stay, for now
A couple moments longer
Then I’ll break loose somehow

I want your hands on my body…
I want your lips on my skin
But you still can’t come in tonight
I want your hands on my body
But my heart has to know that it’s right
