Hank Snow – I Wish My Heart Could Talk lyrics

Written by Chapel - Bennett
Recorded by Hank Snow

I wish my heart could talk to you like I do every night
When we're apart you know it's true I love you every night
You'd come running back and never leave me feelin' blue
If my heart (if my heart) could talk (heart could talk)
To you (heart could talk to you)

(spoken)
Ya know, honey, whenever you're close enough to me
To reach out and kiss my fingertips
Then what I'm really feelin' deep down in my heart
Always fails to leave my lips
'Cause I plan on all the things that my heart wants to say
And then I think I'm all set for the next time I see you walk my way
But it just seems that every time you do I only make a standing start
And then, darlin, you're gone, yes, you're gone again
Before these words can ever leave my heart

(sing)
If my heart could talk to you, you'd never go away
If my heart could talk to you, forever you would stay
You'd come running back and never leave me feelin' blue
If my heart (if my heart) could talk (heart could talk)
To you (if my heart could talk to you)
