My Heart Won't Listen to My Mind

Conway Twitty · I Wonder What She'll Think About Me Leaving [1971]

(L.E. White)



I woke up this morning

To a world that's all wrong

And suddenly remembered

You're gone.



I tried hard to forget you

But there's no way I find

My heart won't listen

To my mind.



I cried a river of teardrops

Got a heart full of ache

I never learned to give all

I knew would fake.



So I took the love you gave me

Then left you behind

My heart won't listen

To my mind.



--- Instrumental ---



So I'll hold to your mem'ry

That's all I can do

And relieve each moment

Spent with you,



And in my darkest hour

There's no measure of time

My heart won't listen

To my mind.



I cried a river of teardrops

Got a heart full of ache

I never learned to give all

I knew would fake.



So I took the love you gave me

Then left you behind

My heart won't listen

To my mind...
