How I Feel

(david tyson/tina arena/dean mctaggert)

You sit in silence in the shadows
You don't complain or criticize
And while the world may see me as a fool
They're not looking through your eyes
No questions asked, you're there when i need you
With a love that inspires me to be everything you deserve

'cause you're my unsung hero
And i know it's not easy to walk in your shoes
Day after day youcontinue to amaze me
Now i sing this song of love for you

While others long to steal the spotlight
You work your magic quietly
Cause you're not in it for the glory
The love you give comes naturally
I may not have much, but what i have i give to you
And this song that i sing is my gift
And i swear that i mean every word

'cause you're my unsung hero
And i know it's not easy to walk in your shoes
Day after day youcontinue to amaze me
Now i sing this song of love for you

'cause you're my unsung hero
And i know it's not easy to walk in your shoes
Day after day youcontinue to amaze me
Now i sing this song of love for you

Now i sing this song of love
For you

you call and wake me up, the way you always do
Say you miss me and you're sorry, deja vu
You push the button in the heart you know so well
The wall starts coming down then i remind myself

Everytime i think you might have changed
Put aside the anger and the blame
Make myself believe that there's a way to work it out
Everytime you say let's try again
Begging me to let you back in
Everytime i do
Everytime you lie
Everytime i cry

If only promises could just erase the past
I could open up my heart enough to take you back
But we've been down this road
Time and time again
I've learned the hard way how the story always ends

Everytime i think you might have changed
Put aside the anger and the blame
Make myself believe that there's a way to work it out
Everytime you say let's try again
Begging me to let you back in
Everytime i do
Everytime you lie
Everytime i cry

Everytime i think you might have changed
Put aside the anger and the blame
Make myself believe that there's a way to work it out
Everytime you say let's try again
Begging me to let you back in
Everytime i do
Everytime you lie
Everytime i cry

Everytime i do
Everytime you lie
Everytime i cry

If this ole heart
Was built like a truck
These rocky ole roads wouldn't be so rough
And if it ever broke down i'd patch it up
If this ole heart was built like a truck


If this ole heart was made like a train
A lot of smoke and steel, wouldn't feel no pain
And it wouldn't look back as it rolled away
If this ole heart was made like a train

But this ole heart is flesh and blood
Gets in trouble when it cares too much
Keeps hangin' on when it ought to give up
On somethin that's passed
I wish it had wheels and i wish it had wings
Cause i could sure use just one of those things
Then this danged ole fallin' out of love wouldn't hurt so bad
But this ole heart ain't made like that

If this ole heart was like an ole tin roof
Beatin' by the rain, wheathered and used
A fresh coat of paint would make it good as new
If this ole heart was like an ole tin roof

But this ole heart is flesh and blood
Gets in trouble when it cares too much
Keeps hangin' on when it ought to give up
On somethin that's passed
I wish it had wheels and i wish it had wings
Cause i could sure use just one of those things
Then this danged ole fallin' out of love wouldn't hurt so bad
But this ole heart ain't made like that

How can i believe
That my heart would find someone like you
You see me, the real me
No in bewteens, i had nowhere to hide
You took away the walls around me
Made me feel safe to share my truth

I see the heavens open, a heart that once was broken
Is holding nothing back
Now that i found you
You hold me like a prayer, you touch me everywhere
A lifetime just ain't enough to love you true
Now that i found you
Now that i found you

I do believe we're meant to be
Our chemistry will last forever
And through the years
We'll see some tears
We'll conquer fears
And together we will grow
Look through your eyes
They tell me
I no longer have to be alone

I see the heavens open, a heart that once was broken
Is holding nothing back
Now that i found you
You hold me like a prayer, you touch me everywhere
A lifetime just ain't enough to love you true
Now that i found you
Now that i found you

You see me, the real me
You belive you in me

I see the heavens open, a heart that once was broken
Is holding nothing back
Now that i found you
You hold me like a prayer, you touch me everywhere
A lifetime just ain't enough to love you true
Now that i found you
Now that i found you

I think i'm gonna smile for a while
Pull the curtain back and let some moonlight in
Gossip on the phone with my old friends
Like i used to do

I'm gonna put your memory away
Show this achin in my heart a thing or two
Cause tonight i'm getting even with the blues

That lonely feelings had it's way
Ever since the day i heard you say goodbye
The hurting thinks its found a home
But i'm gonna let it know it ain't welcome here tonight

Tomorrow that old cloud may come around
And there won't be anything that i can do
But tonight i'm getting even with the blues

That lonely feelings had it's way
Ever since the day i heard you say goodbye
The hurting thinks its found a home
But i'm gonna let it know it ain't welcome here tonight

Tomorrow that old cloud may come around
And there won't be anything that i can do
But tonight i'm getting even with the blues
Oh, tonight i'm getting even with the blues

What's going on in your head
You haven't heard a word i've said
I think we need to talk
Cause you turn your emotions off
And that's something i don't understand

'cause that's how i feel
With my heart
Every beat, every part
Way down deep
In my soul
I live and breathe to let you know
That's how i feel

You think the silence buys you time
To make things clearer in your mind
But i can't live in the dark
Not knowing who you are
So tell me how you feel inside

That's how i feel
With my heart
Every beat, every part
Way down deep in my soul
I live and breathe to let you know
That's how i feel

That's how i get to know you
If you'll only let it go you'll
Find it's not as scary as it seems

That's how i feel
With my heart
Every beat, every part
Way down deep in my soul
I live and breathe to let you know
That's how i feel
