Well I don't claim to know anything,
But some things aren't hard to figure out.
I can tell your love for me has been fading,
And I know what you wanna talk about.

'Cause I can read your heart,
It wants to say goodbye.
I can read your heart like an open book.
It's writ-ten in your arms,
They no longer hold me tight,
And what you're about to say is tearing me apart.
So don't start, baby I can read your heart.

I felt it skip a beat on the night we met,
Moving cautiously at first, then letting go.
Yeah, with each passing day, I turned another page,
So there ain't much I don't already know.

'Cause I can read your heart,
It wants to say goodbye.
I can read your heart like an open book.
It's writ-ten in your arms,
They no longer hold me tight,
And what you're about to say is tearing me apart.
So don't start, baby I can read your heart.

Well I knew this day was comin',
It was there between the lines.
Still I was hopin' maybe I could change your mind,
But that's not gonna happen,
No way upon this earth.
So just kiss me one last time but don't say a word.

'Cause I can read your heart,
It wants to say goodbye.
I can read your heart like an open book.
It's written in your arms,
They no longer hold me tight,
And what you're about to say is tearing me apart.
So don't start, baby I can read your heart.
So don't start, baby I can read your heart.
I can read your heart.
