And So It Goes

In every heart there is room
 A sanctuary safe and strong
 To heal the wounds from lovers past
 Until a new one comes along
 I spoke to you in cautious tones
 You answered me with no pretense
 And still I fear I've said too much
 My silence is my self defense
 For every time I've held a rose
 It seems only felt the thorn
 And so it goes and it goes
 And so will you soon, I suppose
 But my silence made you leave
 Then that would be my worst mistake
 So I will share this room with you
 And you can have this heart to break
 And this is why my eyes are closed
 It's just as well for all I've seen
 And so it goes and so it goes
 And you're the only one who knows
 So I would choose to be with you
 That's if the choice ere mine to make
 But can make decision, too
 And you can have this heart to break
