My heart is telling me that you are gonna change, but I know
My heart is lying right to my face, yeah

My heart is making up excuses for your ways, but I wish that
My heart knew when I should walk away

It lets me down, it helps me as I get back up off the ground
While telling me that this is love but I found
It wasn't really on my side, now I think it's time

I tell my heart to just butt out, keep it's opinions to itself
I should just listen to my head, 'cause it's the one who knows what's best
It tells me not to love you, but my heart says just forgive you
Oh but it's not thinking clearly
I wish that I could leave my heart out of this
Leave my heart out of this

I'm done feeling like a stranger to myself, so I know
I've got to put all of my feelings on a shelf, yeah

It lets me down, it helps me as I get back up off the ground
While telling me that this is love but I found
It wasn't really on my side, now I think it's time

I tell my heart to just butt out, keep it's opinions to itself
I should just listen to my head, 'cause it's the one who knows what's best
It tells me not to love you, but my heart says just forgive you
Oh but it's not thinking clearly
I wish that I could leave my heart out of this
Leave my heart out of this

Sometimes I wish you'd just shut up
And let me think, I've had enough
I need to just make up my mind (make up my mind)

So that's why

(I should just listen to my head, 'cause it's the one who knows what's best)

It tells me (tells me) not to love you (love you) but my heart says just forgive you
Oh but it's not thinking clearly
I wish that I could leave my (leave my, leave my, leave my, leave my) heart out of this
Leave my heart out of this

Hey, le- le- le- leave my heart
Le- le- le- leave my heart, no, no
