IN EVERY HEART
THERE IS A ROOM
A SANCTUARY
SAFE AND STRONG
TO HEAL THE WOUNDS
FROM LOVERS PAST
UNTIL A NEW ONE
COMES ALONG
I SPOKE TO YOU
IN CAUTIOUS TONES
YOU ANSWERED ME
WITH NO PRETENSE
AND STILL I FEEL
I SAID TOO MUCH
MY SILENCE IS
MY SELF-DEFENSE
AND EVERY TIME
I'VE HELD A ROSE
IT SEEMS I ONLY
FELT THE THORNS
AND SO IT GOES
AND SO IT GOES
AND SO WILL YOU
SOON I SUPPOSE
BUT IF MY SILENCE
MADE YOU LEAVE
THEN THAT WOULD BE
MY WORST MISTAKE
SO I WILL SHARE
THIS ROOM WITH YOU
AND YOU CAN HAVE
THIS HEART TO BREAK
AND THIS IS WHY
MY EYES ARE CLOSED
IT'S JUST AS WELL
FOR ALL I'VE SEEN
AND SO IT GOES
AND SO IT GOES
AND YOU'RE
THE ONLY ONE
WHO KNOWS
SO I WOULD CHOOSE
TO BE WITH YOU
THAT'S IF THE CHOICE
WERE MINE TO MAKE
BUT YOU CAN
MAKE DECISIONS TOO
AND YOU CAN HAVE
THIS HEART TO BREAK
AND SO IT GOES
AND SO IT GOES
AND YOU'RE
THE ONLY ONE
WHO KNOWS
