In every heart there is a room  A sanctuary safe and strong  To heal the wounds from lovers past  Until a new one come along    I spoke to you in cautious tones  You answered me with no pretense  And still I feel I’ve said too much  My silence is my self defense    And every time I’ve held the rose  It seems I’d only felt the thorns  And so it goes, and so it goes  And so will you soon I suppose    But if my silence made you leave  Well that would be my worst mistake  So I will share this room with you  You can have this heart to rake    This is why my eyes are closed  It’s just as well for all I’ve seen  And so it goes, and so it goes  And you’re the only one who knows    So I will choose to be with you  As if the choice were mine to make  You can make decisions to   And you can have this hear to rake    And so it goes, and so it goes  And you’re the only one  Who knows    these lyrics are submitted by K.
