a song i loved to hear...not once,not twice but again and again and again... <",)

If I Keep My Heart Out Of Sight
(written by: Taylor)
From the album "JT"

If I keep on talking now,
I'll only start repeating myself
All I can say is I love you,
I love you, I love you, I love you.

If I slip and tip my hand,
I'm certain to scare you away,
What would I say?

I'd be hurting, I'm certain,
I'd be uncool to let you know
That you're the one,
The fool who jumped the gun.

I've been advised
By other guys you've left behind,
Your good byes are somewhat unrefined.


If I play my role just right,
Tonight could be my lucky night
And you could be mine.

If I present it to you
with a flower In the moonlight,shiny and new,
Well, you couldn't say no tonight,
If I keep my heart out of sight.

If I play my role just right,
Then tonight could be my lucky night
And you could be mine.

If I present it to you with a flower
In the moonlight, oh...shiny and new,
Well, you couldn't say no tonight,
If I keep my heart out of sight.
