(Carly Simon/Libby Titus/Jacob Brackman)
The lies that you tell will leave you alone
They'll keep you down,
They'll catch you and trip you up
Keep you hangin' around
The habit is old - you don't need it anymore
Go on and kiss it goodbye
'Cause you got me, and I can see
Who you really are
I want to show you my heart
I want to know you by heart
And love you by heart
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/c/carly+simon/love+you+by+heart_20027375.html ]
I'm right here beside you
There's nobody else to set you straight
To shake you, to let you know
That it's still not too late -
I want to show you my heart
I want to know you by heart
And love you by heart
Don't make up stories,
I know you by your eyes
I think I know what's inside
The streets you've been on
Will leave you out in the cold
But you know I care,
And years from now
We'll both look down from the top of the stairs -
Here I've shown you my heart
I want to know you by heart
And love you by heart
