Heart Of Hearts (Live At The Flowerpot, Kentish Town, July 2010) - Alan Pownall

Was it the words you could not help but say

That made my mind turn in its own special way

We could stick to the point like the things you could be

And I'll do my best not to make it about me

Don't be down now cos I hate to see you cry

Lets write a list of things to do before we die

We could plan for the summer or when we are older

And I'll look in your eyes and not over your shoulder

And I won't pretend I ever understood

What ended up doing me good

If I only knew where would we start

I'd know in my heart of hearts

Do you choose the faces that you have around

Do you wear those big boots to keep your feet on the ground

There is caution with all the new people you meet

So much one can judge by the company you keep

And how do we make what's outside dissappear

I'll tell you the things I know you want to hear

What's mine can be yours and what's yours can be mine

Must we be serious all of the time

And I won't pretend I ever understood

What ended up doing me good

If I only knew where would we start

I'd know in my heart of hearts

There is a place I live longing to find

A place where i go all my thoughts will be kind

I am yet to find home where my heart wants to be

But i Inow when I get there you'll be waiting for me

And I won't pretend I ever understood

What ended up doing me good

If I only knew where would we start

I'd know in my heart of hearts

I'd know in my heart of hearts
