What'll I Tell My Heart

What'll I Tell My Heart - Dinah Washington

I'll try to explain to friends dear

The reason we two are apart

I know what to tell our friends dear

But what can I tell my heart

It's easy to say to strangers

That we played a game from the start

It's easy to lie to stranger

But why tell I to your heart

When I smile to hide all the tears inside

What an ache it will bring

Then I'll wander home to a telephone

That forgot how to ring

I could say you'll soon be back dear

To fool the whole town may be smart

I'll tell them you'll soon be back dear

But what can I tell my heart

When I smile to hide all the tears inside

What an ache it will bring

Then I'll wander home to a telephone

Let that forgot how to ring

I could say you'll soon be back dear

To fool the whole town may be smart

I'll tell them you'll soon be back dear

But what will I tell my heart

Oh what will I tell my heart
