In every heart there is a room
A sanctuary safe and strong
To heal the wonds from lovers past
Until a new one comes along
I spoke to you in cautious tones
You answered me with no pretense
And still I feel I said too much
y silence is my self defense
And everytime I`ve held a rose
It seems I`ve only felt the thorns
And so it goes, and so it goes
And so will you soon I suppose
But if my silence made you leave
Then that would be my worst mistake
So I will share this room with you
And you can have this heart to break
And this is why my eyes are closed
It`s just as well for all I`ve seen
And so it goes, and so it goes
And you`re the only one who knows
So I would choose to be with you
That`s if the choice was mine to make
But you can make decisions too
And you can have this heart to break
And so it goes, and so it goes
And you`re the only one who knows
