Lyrics Shelby Lynne

Shelby Lynne

Don't Cross Your Heart

You can't turn your back and walk away

Until the cards are stacked against us

And you thought it through

But you're gonna lose when it crosses over

Then life turns defenceless and it'll turn on you

Oh if you've loved before don't try to deny it

You can't ignore the way you feel inside

Chorus

Don't cross your heart

It's a fight you can't win

You lose your mind

Don't cross you heart

Your heart gonna break you every time

What you do is up to you

If you wanna play it smart

Honey don't cross your heart

You don't despatch a perfect love

It takes time to make it

You gotta start somewhere

If the truth be known

A (?diamond ring?) is just a piece of stone

Until it shapes it with tender love and care

Chip away until you get to the truth

Oh I can't make you stay

But whatever you do

Chorus

What you do is up to you

If you wanna play it smart

Honey don't cross your heart
