SMASH lyrics : "Never Give All The Heart"

As a girl, I lived in a million homes
So I always would keep to myself
And my lessons were learned

From the stories and poems
I would steal from a library shelf


Yes, the books like the rooms
Weren't mine to keep
But the words were left behind

And I think of them all now when I can't sleep
And a poet who read my mind


As the wise men once wrote
Never give all the heart
Well, it's easy to see

He was writing for me
I just wish I could play that part


Yes, he scribbled that love isn't worth thinking of
That is fades out from kiss to kiss
If I'd just learned those lines

Well, just think of the misery I'd missed

As the Irish men said

Don't put your heart up to play
When he warned of the cost
And the heart that he lost

Mister Yeats really paved the way

For the men that I've known

Who have clearly shown
They've been reading him from the start
'Cause when it comes to me

Well, their kisses come free
But they never give all the heart


---------------------------------------

When he warned of the cost

And the heart that he lost
Mister Yeats really paved the way



For the men that I've known
Well, they've clearly shown

They've been reading him from the start
'Cause each time that I fall
They never give all the heart


MmmmmmMmmm....
