Michael Martin Murphey - The Heart Knows the Truth lyrics

Man only sees what he wants to see I saw you loving me No ties to unwind, no promises to bind When the dawn set us free One night of moonlight and roses Was all that I saw in you Man only sees what he wants to see But the heart knows the truth Oh, the heart knows the truth Man only hears what he wants to hear I heard me say goodbye I didn't listen to what my heart whispered I still wonder why I told myself it didn't matter That I'd forget about you A man only hears what he wants to hear But the heart knows the truth Ooh, oh, the heart knows the truth Ooh, the heart knows the truth Man only sees what he wants to see Now I see you in my dreams Man only hears what he wants to hear I hear you call my name Moonlight like Mexican silver Turns the red rose to blue The night wind whispers you'll always be mine But the heart knows the truth Ooh, oh, the heart knows the truth Ooh, the heart knows the truth Oh, the heart knows the truth Oh, the heart knows the truth Oh, the heart knows the truth Oh, the heart knows the truth
