What Will I Tell My Heart? - 1937

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK 03 Aug 2001

You and I
They used to point at us and say:
"A perfect pair!"
Now they see,
There's no one next to me,
They stop and stare.

I'll try to explain to friends, dear,
The reason we two are apart,
I know what to tell our friends, dear,
But what will I tell my heart?
It's easy to say to strangers,
That we played a game from the start,
It's easy to lie to strangers,
But what will I tell my heart?
When I smile to hide
All the tears inside,
What an ache it will bring,
Then I'll wander home
To a telephone that forgot how to ring.
I could say you'll soon be back, dear,
To fool the whole town may be smart,
I'll tell them
You'll soon be back, dear,
But what will I tell my heart?

I'll try to explain to friends, dear,
The reason we two are apart,
I know what to tell our friends, dear,
But what will I tell my heart?
It's easy to say to strangers,
That we played a game from the start,
It's easy to lie to strangers,
But what will I tell my heart?
When I smile to hide
All the tears inside,
What an ache it will bring,
Then I'll wander home
To a telephone that forgot how to ring.
I could say you'll soon be back, dear,
To fool the whole town may be smart,
I'll tell them
You'll soon be back, dear,
But what will I tell my heart?

When they stop and ask me
What's become of you
I turn away.
Can't conceal the heartache that I feel,
What can I say?

I'll try to explain to friends, dear,
The reason we two are apart,
I know what to tell our friends, dear,
But what will I tell my heart?
It's easy to say to strangers,
That we played a game from the start,
It's easy to lie to strangers,
But what will I tell my heart?
When I smile to hide
All the tears inside,
What an ache it will bring,
Then I'll wander home
To a telephone that forgot how to ring.
I could say you'll soon be back, dear,
To fool the whole town may be smart,
I'll tell them
You'll soon be back, dear,
But what will I tell my heart?
