A Heart Can't Stay Still Lyrics

The watchmen rang the bells at dawn

But the fire had already burned too long

By the time anyone knew what was going on

You were long so long gone

You told me that you loved me

And swore you always will

But nothing lasts forever

Cause a heart can't stay still

Now the words come back to haunt me

Like a house upon the hill

Deserted by a father

Cause a heart can't stay still

No, a heart can't stay still

We told our stories to piece into place

A little peace to see it got this way

But you're still out there calling upon the same ole name

While we're covered in ash stains

You told me that you loved me

And swore you always will

But nothing lasts forever

Cause a heart can't stay still

Now the words come back to haunt me

Like a house upon the hill

Deserted by a father

Cause a heart can't stay still

No, a heart can't stay still

Oh the pictures, no longer fit the frames

Yeah, you told me that you loved me

And swore you always will

But nothing lasts forever

Cause a heart can't stay still

Now the words come back to haunt me

Like a house upon the hill

Deserted by a father

Cause a heart can't stay still

No, a heart can't stay still
