I can hear somebody walking down this midnight street

So you came back to say goodbye thinking it would make it complete

If you lost your love for me that's all I need to know

So turn around and go but don't listen too close



For you will see no tears from these eyes as I go back to the start

I've got everything under control, everything but my heart

I refuse to let you believe this is gonna tear me apart

But as you turn and walk away, so long whispers my heart



I have lived long enough to know the pleasure and the pain

It's nothing new to find myself aching standing in the pouring rain

I don't care if it's somebody else I don't wanna hear those lines

Your love seems to be fine so I'll take back mine



And you will see no tears from these eyes as I go back to the start

I've got everything under control, everything but my heart

And I refuse to let you believe this is gonna tear me apart

But as you turn and walk away, so long whispers my heart



It seems so easy for you to forget our long secret nights

I haven't yet

But you will believe I am surviving too

It's something I must do

I'll never let you feel what's true



You will see no tears from these eyes as I go back to the start

I've got everything under control, everything but my heart

I refuse to let you believe this is gonna tear me apart

But as you turn and walk away, so long whispers my heart
