Billy Joel<\/a>
\nStorm Front<\/i> (1989)<\/p>\nIn every heart there is a room
\nA sanctuary safe and strong
\nTo heal the wounds from lovers past
\nUntil a new one comes along<\/p>\n
I spoke to you in cautious tones
\nYou answered me with no pretense
\nAnd still I feel I said too much
\nMy silence is my self defense<\/p>\n
And every time I’ve held a rose
\nIt seems I only felt the thorns
\nAnd so it goes, and so it goes
\nAnd so will you soon I suppose<\/p>\n
But if my silence made you leave
\nThen that would be my worst mistake
\nSo I will share this room with you
\nAnd you can have this heart to break<\/p>\n
And this is why my eyes are closed
\nIt’s just as well for all I’ve seen
\nAnd so it goes, and so it goes
\nAnd you’re the only one who knows<\/p>\n
So I would choose to be with you
\nThat’s if the choice were mine to make
\nBut you can make decisions too
\nAnd you can have this heart to break<\/p>\n
And so it goes, and so it goes
\nAnd you’re the only one who knows<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
