I'll try to explain to friends dear

The reason we two are apart

I know what to tell our friends, dear

But what can I tell my heart

It's easy to say to strangers

That we played the game from the start

It's easy to lie to stranger

But why tell a lie to your heart

When I smile to hide all the tears inside

What an ache it will bring

Then I'll wonder home to a telephone

That forgot how to ring

I could say you'll soon be back, dear

To fool the whole town may be smart

I'll tell them you'll soon be back, dear

But what can I tell my heart

When I smile to hide all the tears inside

What an ache it will bring

Then I'll wonder home to a telephone

That forgot how to ring

I could say you'll soon be back, dear

To fool the whole town may be smart

Oh I say them you'll soon be back, dear

Ho but what can I tell my heart ho ooh

Oh, what will I tell my heart yea

(Yea right)
