lyrics

Don’t Give Your Heart To Me
Written by Ciaran McMeeken / Anna Coddington

I wanna get to know you
But let’s take it slow
Don't give your heart to me
I've got a busy life
I’m always occupied
Don't give your heart to me
I'm racing around the clock this week
We haven't had a chance to speak

Tell me your deepest secret
I'll keep it safe
But don't give your heart to me
I have a good intention
Don't get me wrong
But don't give your heart to me

I spread myself too thin sometimes
That’s an understatement
I lead a simple life but at the same time
It's complicated

(Chorus)
I will stay, if you want
But I must let you know
I will leave when I need to be gone
There's a place that I'm going
But I must give you warning
It’s a place that I'm going alone
So don't give your heart to me

Reached out your thirsty hand
Asked me to drink
You say you’re falling for me
I've let this go on too long
This may sound cold
I can't be falling for you
There's something you deserve know
And it’s hard for me to say
I have to pack my things and go
It has to be this way

(Repeat Chorus)

I know it's hard to take
I know I’ve been there before
In the back of my mind I could let it slide one more night
I could slip away before you even opened your eyes

Do me a favour
Don't give your heart to me
