This cold heart of mine, can I find a connection?
Maybe it's just a protection from rejection.
I never once intended for me to feel this way.
But it's not the way I want it that's all I can say.

I still believe in a lady to be my one and only.
Someone to confide with and to never be lonely.
I don't wanna break anyone's heart in the process.
I just wanna keep pushing on and make some progress.

But I can't just leave everything to me, myself and I.
I don't wanna go through the torment of another goodbye.
I just know how it feels to have a fatal attraction.
And I will not instigate on my heart's refraction.

So I say to you this is where my heart stands.
I will keep my heart from going to distant lands.
I never want to relive my heart being lost.
I might not live through it to count up the cost.
