Bonnie Tyler - Hide Your Heart lyrics

Your rating:

Johnny saw her riding on a streetcar named 'Desire'
His fate was sealed
She could see him coming like a hundred other liars
It was no big deal

Rosa had a lover on the shady side of town
Tito, he was king of the streets
She was his possession like a jewel on his crown
Johnny better run, better run

Better hide your heart
Better hold on tight
Better say your prayers
'Cause there's trouble tonight
When pride and love battle with desire
Better hide your heart
'Cause you're playing with fire

The ride was over but the story doesn't end
He took her heart
She looked him in the eye and said they couldn't meet again
You could see the trouble start

The word went out that Rosa's messing with someone
It was on the street
Tito looked for Johnny with a vengeance and a gun
Johnny better run, better run

Better hide your heart
Better hold on tight
Better say your prayers
'Cause there's trouble tonight
When pride and love battle with desire
Better hide your heart
'Cause you're playing with fire

Johnny's holding Rosa on a rooftop in the night
As time stood still they couldn't hear him coming
'Til he had them both in sight
You could feel the chill

A shot rang out like thunder
And the blood was on her hands
With nothing won
When someone lies there dying lovers finally understand

Better hide your heart
Better hold on tight
Better say your prayers
'Cause there's trouble tonight
When pride and love battle with desire
Better hide your heart
'Cause you're playing with fire

Better hide your heart
'Cause you're playing with fire

When pride and love battle with desire
Better hide your heart
'Cause you're playing with fire
