I lose my head
 
 From time to time
 
 I make a fool of myself
 
 In matters of the heart 
 
  
  We should have been holding each other
 
 Instead we talked
 
 I make a fool of myself
 
 In matters of the heart 
  
 
 But I asked before
 
 Your reply was kind and polite
 
 One wants more
 
 When one's denied
 
 I make a fool of myself
 
 In matters of the heart 
  
 
 I won't call it love
 
 But it feels good to have passion in my life
 
 If there's a battle
 
 I hope my head always defers to my heart
 
 In matters of the heart 
  
 
 I guess I'm crazy to think
 
 I can give you what you don't want
 
 I make a fool of myself
 
 In matters of the heart 
  
 
 I wish that I had the power
 
 To make these feelings stop
 
 I lose all self control
 
 In matters of the heart
  
 
 I can't believe
 
 It's so hard to find someone
 
 To give affection to
 
 And from whom you can receive
 
 I guess it's just the draw of the cards
 
 In matters of the heart 
  
 
 You caught me off guard
 
 Somehow you reached me
 
 Where I thought I had nothing left inside
 
 I've learned my lesson I've been edified
 
 In matters of the heart 
  
 
 I've spent my nights
 
 Where the sleeping dogs lie
 
 Not by your side
 
 It feels so lonely
 
 Once again I've left to much to chance
 
 In matters of the heart 
  
 
 Here I sit
 
 I'm feeling sorry for myself
 
 It's quite a sight
 
 But I have you to thank
 
 For reminding me
 
 We're all alone in this world
 
 And in matters of the heart 
  
 
 I'm already missing you
 
 Although we won't say good-byes
 
 Until tomorrow afternoon
 
 Maybe when and if I see you again
 
 We'll see eye to eye
 
 In matters of the heart 
  
 
 I have no harsh words for you
 
 I have no tears to cry
 
 If the moon were full
 
 I'd be howling inside
 
 It only hurts
 
 In matters of the heart 
  
 
 If today were my birthday
 
 I'd be reborn
 
 As Bronte's bird a bird that could fly
 
 And all accounts would be settled
 
 In matters of the heart 
  
 
 Matters of the heart
