I Told My Heart - Marty Robbins

I told my heart to forget her

Her little game is well known

I told my heart it’s best that we part

But my heart has a mind of it’s own

How foolish to think I could rule it

How silly to even begin

If I win, if I lose, or if I sing the blues

I must play the game to the end

I told my heart to be careful

Don’t swim where the water’s too deep

It won’t pay attention to things that I mention

To the danger ahead, it’s asleep

Too late to turn back, it’s all over

Gone is the love I have known

I got lost in the rush but I’ve still got a crush

'Cause my heart

(Ba-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da)

Has a mind

(Ba-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da)

Of it’s own

(Ba-da-da-da-da-da-bing)
