HEART
(William Snyder)

Claude King - 1970



Heart, don't get your hopes up
Eyes, now don't you shine
Feet, don't start to dancing
Till she tells me she'll be mine

Lips, don't start to smiling
Voice, don't sing too soon
So heart, don't get your hopes up
Till she says she loves me too

Don't start making plans to hurt me
There's a lot of bridges yet to cross
Don't count your chickens, boy, 'fore they start to hatch
Better keep your cart behind the horse

Truth, she hardly knows me
She needs a little time
So heart, don't get your hopes up
Till I'm certain she'll be mine
Till I'm certain she'll be mine
