I can tell by the way you're holdin' me you want more than just one night
And God knows I feel the same way too as I lay here by your side
But I don't want to lead you on and make promises that I can't keep
So if you knew what was best for you you'd get up and leave

Cause you don't know where this heart's been and the trouble that it's seen
All that's it's been through or what you'll get into if you fall in love with me
It's had more than its share or hard times and may never love again
I know you want to stay but you better walk away
Cause you don't know where this heart's been

Someone long before you left me here alone and still in love
And I swore I'd never get that close again once was enough
You say you'll erase the pain and put this life of mine back on track
Well you don't know what you're saying it's not as easy as that

Cause you don't know where this heart's been...
Oh I'd love for you to stay but you better walk away
Cause you don't know where this heart's been
