Song That's In My Head

Song of love and heartbreak.

Song that's in my head
By Michelle Morris

There's a song that's in my head
It's all about how I'll love you forever
I can feel the warmth in my heart
So much love that it's all of me

And I may love you 
To the moon and back
(Oh yes, I do; Oh yes, I do)
But I know, when my mind is clear
That your love's not true
(Oh no, it's not true)

So, take these precious wings
And fly away now; fly away
I will love you beyond my death
Fly away my dear; you are free

So, take these precious wings
And fly away now; fly away
My heart needs time to rest
Time to rest, dear, for another day 

There's a song that's in my head
And I fear that it will stay there forever 
I can feel the echoes in my soul
It wears me down where darkness grows 

And I may love you 
To the moon and back
(Oh yes, I do; Oh yes, I do)
But I know, when my mind is clear
That your love's not true
(Oh no, it's not true)

So, take these precious wings
And fly away now; fly away
I will love you beyond my death
Fly away my dear; and set me free

So, take these precious wings
And fly away now; fly away
My heart needs time to rest
Time to rest, dear, for another day 

So, take these precious wings
And fly away now; fly away
I will love you beyond my death
Fly away my dear; and set me free

So, take these precious wings
And fly away now; fly away
My heart needs time to rest
Time to rest, dear, for another day
