Lyrics
Put your hand on your heart and tell me
That we're through, ooh
Oh, put your hand
on your heart
Hand on your heart
Well it's one thing to fall in love
But another to make it last
I thought
that we were just begining
And now you say we're in the past
Oh, look me in the eye
And tell me we are really through
You
know it's one thing to say you love me
But another to mean it from the heart
And if you don't intend to see it through
Why
did we ever start
Oh, I wanna hear you tell me
You don't want my love
Put your hand on your heart and tell me
It's
all over
I won't believe it till you
Put your hand on your heart and tell me
That we're through, ooh
Oh, put
your hand on your heart
Hand on your heart
They like to talk about forever
But most people never get the chance
Do
you wanna lose our love together
Do you find a new romance
Oh, I wanna hear you tell me
You don't want my love
Oh,
put your hand on your heart
Hand on your heart
(Hand on your heart)
Hand on your heart
(Hand on your heart)
Hand
on your heart
Oh, look me in the eye
And tell me we are really through
