Heart and Head

(Lyrics/Music - J. Meade)

 

So you think that it’d be best if you were gone

Because you think it makes no sense to carry on

You’ve written out a list of pros and cons

And you and I just seem to work out wrong

 

Well, I’m glad to hear you’re thinking with your head

Because I’d hate to hear your heart’s version instead

But you might fall in love

And where would you be then?

All happy there, with your only friend

 

So I hope that you don’t need someone like me

I hope that you’re as strong as you seem

‘Cause if you called, I’d come to readily

I’d be the fool to do your beckoning

 

Well, I’m sad you’ve got me speaking from my head

Because I’d rather give my heart’s version instead

But you might fall in love

And where would you be then?

All happy there, with your only friend

 

It’s better that you and I don’t try

‘Cause this could be all we get for our lives

And who wants love?

There’s so much to lose

Yeah, who wants love?

It could bend and bruise

And you can’t just let go and fall
