At the Heart of This Thing

You made me mad
What was I supposed to say?
The choice I had was to turn the other way
But I saw you dance and everything changed
Everything changed

At the heart of this thing
I had such good intentions
You never mentioned that you wouldn't last the day
At the heart of this thing
I'm no good at pretending
I couldn't help resenting what I would never hear you say

Out of my mind
And I'm on some kind of chase
While you decide just to lock yourself away
But you're sure to shine, and you know I can dream
You know I can dream

At the heart of this thing
I had such good intentions
You never mentioned that you wouldn't last the day
At the heart of this thing
I'm no good at pretending
I couldn't help resenting what I would never hear you say

Baby, I've got such a good feeling about you
And I just can't shake it loose

I'll survive
But I'd rather go down in a fight
Aw, baby, be brave
Come on, baby, be brave

At the heart of this thing
I had such good intentions
You never mentioned that you wouldn't last the day
At the heart of this thing
I'm no good at pretending
I couldn't help resenting what I would never hear you say
