I Wish My Heart Could Talk

Hank Snow · The Singing Ranger, Vol. 3 [Bear Family (Germany)] [1994]

(Jean Chapel - Bennett)



I wish my heart could talk to you like I do every night

When we're apart you know it's true I love you every night

You'd come running back and never leave me feeling blue

If my heart could talk to you.



Ya know honey, whenever you're close enough to me

To reach out and kiss my fingertips

Then what I'm really feeling deep down in my heart

Always fails to leave my lips.



'Cause I plan on all the things that my heart wants to say

And then I think I'm all set for the next time I see you walk my way

But it just seems that every time you do I only make a standing start

And then darling you're gone, yes you're gone again

Before these words can ever leave my heart.



If my heart could talk to you you'd never go away

If my heart could talk to you forever you would stay

You'd come running back and never leave me feeling blue

If my heart could talk to you...
