Heart Don't Lie
La Toya Jackson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
From what you feel inside
(Repeat 4 times)
Five long months we've been going steady
I know it seems like a long time
When I ask the question you say you're not ready
I'm sure it's time for this right now
Don't try to hide it
With words that just aren't true
It's showing in your eyes
I see it, so do you
(Cuz your) Heart don't lie
You can tell me any old thing
Heart don't lie
It won't let you be deceiving
You know your heart don't lie
I don't want your life, just want to share it
Want the same thing, though I just don't know
So throw away your mask and set your heart free
Love's a masquerade, girl, can't you see
Why try to hide it
With words that just aren't true?
You know you want me
'Cause I feel it and so do you
(Cuz your) Heart don't lie
You can tell me any old thing
Heart don't lie
It won't let you be deceiving
Heart don't lie
You can tell me any old thing
Heart don't lie
It won't let you be deceiving
Brother, you're looking nice
Love me, and your heart don't lie

She was labeled quarky and weird early on because her style was different. She was just eccentric. I don't think she was a performer. Her dad made her quit law school to perform but I think she would have done well as a lawyer. I think she has the biggest heart and I think her songs are catchy. though.
@lafilledefleur
that’s interesting i feel like
michael was quirky in his own way too. i wonder why
@hezekiahmanigo4964
I love this video and song from my beautiful la Toya!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hezekiah manigo Jr.
@magovenor
Well I’m thinking you must not have been alive at that time. I’m the same age as her and I remember everything from that time. She was going around giving interviews that she was still a virgin although she was married to her husband. Once Michael hit it big, they all came out of the woodwork trying to cash in on his success, especially Latoya. The things she said publicly about her brother was horrific. Only after her marriage was over and folks were no longer buying the Penthouse issue she had posed naked in, did she start to retract some of her statements about her brother Michael. Give me a break.
