I Can’t Tell My Heart What To Do

Steve Shockley, Aaron Smith, Sami McKinney

Late at night I call out your name
Wishing you were here to erase the pain
Thoughts of you still burn on my mind
Guess I'm missing you after all this time

I try my best to be politely nonchalant
When people speak of you but you're the one I want
Sure, I can play it off, pretend it's not big deal
But I can't stop myself from feeling what I feel

I can't tell my heart what to do
After you're gone it still beats for you
I can't tell my heart what to do
I try to be strong but there's just no use

Thought our love would always survive
Any obstacle til I realized (til I realized)
You had someone else on your mind
You left me no choice but to say goodbye
What made me think I could adjust to being free
When I was used to you existing here with me (right here with me)
I'm so confused because I'm longing for your touch
When I know I should be resisting that old rush

I can't tell my heart what to do
After you're gone it still beats for you
Still beats for you, baby
I can't tell my heart what to do
I try to be strong but there's just no use
But there ain't no use

How I wish, baby
That you were mine again (you were mine again)
'Cause I've got so much love to send (to send)
Baby, can't you see you're still a part me
Your love won't let me be
I'm lost in you, it tortures me, baby

Baby, isn't it a shame
Said, that I, can't tell it what to do

I can't tell my heart what to do
Said that I (still beats for you) baby, baby
I can't tell my heart what to do
Said I'm, I"m tellin' you
I'm in love with you, baby
I have no control, honey
I can't rule it, baby
Ooo, it's gonna do what it wants to do
