Explain It To My Heart

I understand there's no future for us here

Guess i fooled myself into thinking there was

Now you've made it clear

It'll never be right

Guess we knew it all along

Now we've got to say good-bye and i've got to be strong

So tell me one more time how it's better for the both of us

Tell me one more time how we'll hurt each other if we stay

Tell me one more time then darling there's just one more thing

Before you walk away

(chorus)

Explain it to my heart

It's better that we're over now

Tell me one more time this is the way that it's supposed to be

Tell me that i'm better off without you

How it's better to forget about you

Darling i understand

Now won't you please explain it to my heart



Now if i try i can see the reasons why

Why we can't stay together and i might convince my mind

But it's breaking my heart to know i've got to let you go

To find that i must leave behind the only love i've known

Well i can tell myself that i never really needed you

I can tell myself that it's better just to say good-bye

I can tell myself a thousand lies

But tell me now

Tell me how do i

(chorus)

Say that i'll be better

If we don't stay together

Say that i'll be better off free

But don't say it to me

Explain it to my heart...
