"Heart" lyrics

"Heart"

I don't have the heart to conceal my love
When I know it is the best of me
If I should offend you, I will show myself out
You can bury me in doubt if you need to
I can walk out in the street
No-one need look at me
It is with my eyes I see
I guess that I am soft, but I am also angry
But I will feel all my loss
I will hold my heart inside me

My dumb eyes turn toward beauty
Turn towards sky, renewing
My dumb touch is always reaching
For green, for soft, for yielding
In the pale dim light, I am always reeling
Through long midnights of feeling
Of all the many things that you may ask of me
Don't ask me for indifference
Don't come to me for distance

No, I don't have the heart to conceal my love
If it is too hard to look at me
I can show myself out
Walk out in the city
You can bury me in doubt if you feel it necessary
