Be Still My Beating Heart

Be still my beating heart
It would be better to be cool
It's not time to be open just yet
....
Be still my beating heart
Or I'll be taken for a fool
....

Restore my broken dreams
Shattered like a falling glass
I'm not ready to be broken just yet
A lesson once learned is so hard to forget

....

Never to be wrong
Never to make promises that break
It's like singing in the wind
Or writing on the surface of a lake
& I wriggle like a fish caught on dry land
& I struggle to avoid any help at hand

I sink like a stone that's been thrown in the ocean
My logic has drowned in a sea of emotion
Stop before you start
Be still my beating heart
