Hiding My Heart

This is how the story went:

I met someone by accident

Who blew me away, blew me away

And it was in the darkest of my days

When you took my sorrow and you took my pain

And buried them away, buried them away...



I wish I could lay down beside you when the day is done

And wake up to your face against the morning sun

But like everything I've ever known, you'll disappear one day

So I spend my whole life hiding my heart away



Dropped you off at the train station

Put a kiss on top of your head

And watched you wave, and watched you wave

Then I went on home to my skyscrapers

Neon lights and waiting papers

That I call home, I call that home



I wish I could lay down beside you when the day is done

And wake up to your face against the morning sun

But like everything I've ever known, you'll disappear one day

So I spend my whole life hiding my heart away

Away, yeah...



Woke up feeling heavyhearted

I'm going back to where I started

The morning rain, the morning rain

And though I wish that you were here

On that same old road that brought me here

It's calling me home, it's calling me home



I wish I could lay down beside you when the day is done

And wake up to your face against the morning sun

But like everything I've ever known, you'll disappear one day

So I'll spend my whole life hiding my heart away

I can't spend my whole life hiding my heart away
