What Will I Tell My Heart Songtext
von Ella Fitzgerald

I′ll try to explain to friends, dear
The reason we two are apart
I know what to tell our friends, dear
But what will I tell my heart?

It's easy to say to strangers
That we played a game from the start
It′s easy to lie to stranger
But what will I tell my heart?


When I smile to hide all the tears inside, what an ache it will bring
Then I'll wander home to a telephone that forgot how to ring
I could say you'll soon be back, dear
To fool the whole town may be smart
I′ll tell them you′ll soon be back, dear
But what will I tell my heart?

I'll try to explain to friends, dear
The reason we two are apart
I know what to tell our friends, dear
But what will I tell my heart?

Oh-oh-oh-oh, baby, what will I tell my heart?
