Let Your Heart Rule Your Head
May Brian Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If you've got time to stay and listen to my story
Just a moment of your life is all I need
Don't say we should be parted
'cause we only just got started
Let your heart rule your head tonight

There's full moon shinin' on the water
There's warm breeze blowin' off the sea
And when my pulse starts a racin'
I know life is for tastin'
Let your heart rule your head tonight

chorus Let your heart rule your head
Let your heart rule your head
Let your heart rule your head tonight
When your whole world is sinkin'
Come to my way of thinkin'
Let your heart rule your head tonight

It's been so long since I put my arms around you
And I don't' know if it's real or it's a dream
But don't pussy-foot about it - shout it
Just can't' live without it!
Let your heart rule your head (everybody)

Let your heart rule your head...etc.

You're starin' my face as though I'm crazy
When I tell you that I need you every day
Can't you see that I love you pretty baby
And ol' time don't ever stop tickin' away

Well your Mama don't mind
And your Papa don't mind
But you'll never be mine
If you're thinkin' all the time
We can work it out right
When I'm holdin' you tight
We can make it tonight
'cause it ain't no crime
Don't let the moment slip away.....
Don't think about it - do it!

Well I know that we're in a time of changes
And in love there is a danger everywhere
But consider every portion
When you've taken your precautions
Let your heart (let your heart)
Let your heart (let your heart)




Let your heart, let your heart, let your heart
Let your heart tule your head.....etc.
