There's nobody else to set you straight

And years from now
Don't make up stories, I know you by your eyes
To shake you, to let you know
I'm right here beside you

I want to know you by heart
We'll both look down from the top of the stairs
But you know I care
I want to know you by heart
I think I know what's inside

'Cause you got me and I can see

They'll catch you and trip you up
Go on and kiss it goodbye

I want to know you by heart
I want to show you my heart
The streets you've been on will leave you out in the cold
I want to show you my heart
Keep you hangin' around
And love you by heart
The habit is old, you don't need it anymore
Who you really are
That it's still not too late
And love you by heart
Here, I've shown you my heart
And love you by heart
