																Lyrics
								
									My Heart Gets In The Way
VERSE
It?s a quarter after midnight and you?re here right by my side
But I can?t fall asleep tonight with so much on my mind
Thought I?d want forever now I?m not really sure
I don?t wanna lie here and watch our love just die here 
But I can?t close that door
CHORUS
My heart gets in the way
Do I leave or do I stay
My head begs me to go
But my heart gets in the way
VERSE
Every star I ever wished on said we were meant to be
And every perfect love song both of us believed
As I stare up at the darkness and wonder what to do
I hear you breathing and I can?t help believing
I should tell you the truth
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Every promise that I ever promised you
I believed deep in my soul would all come true
Still I?d take the step today and walk away
From everything I swore that I would do
CHORUS and out
