Human Nature - If I Only Had The Heart Lyrics

Never want to be alone at night
Need someone there to hold me tight
That's the way it's always been, yeah
May be you that I been thinking of
Doesn't mean I want to be in love
No matter how it seems, babe

So hold it right there
Give me a chance to explain
Baby, don't be thinking I'm in love with you

If I only had the heart to tell you the way it is
If I only had the strength in me to resist
I would have told you, baby, right from the start
Could have stopped you then from falling
If I only had the heart

You say that I been on your mind
Baby, I don't want to waste your time
You got to face the truth, yeah
Every little thing we do together

Don't mean we're gonna last forever
And there's nothing I can do, no
So hold it right there
Give me a chance to explain
Baby don't be thinking I'm in love with you

If I only had the heart to tell you the way it is
If I only had the strength in me to resist
I would have told you, baby, right from the start
Could have stopped you then from falling
If I only had the heart

I can't imagine why you're holding on
'Cause I'm not the one
And I would have told you
If I only had the heart

Baby, don't be thinking I'm in love with you

If I only had the heart
If I only had the heart, I only had the heart
I would have told you, baby, right from the start
Could have stopped you then from falling
If I only had the heart

If I only had the heart to tell you the way it is
If I only had the strength in me to resist
I would have told you, baby, right from the start
Could have stopped you then from falling
If I only had the heart
