i haven t got the heart

Webb Pierce

If I was free from you my darling
I would start my life a new
We've been tied down, oh so long dear
I no longer can be true

Now I know that I should tell you
It would be the thing to do
But I haven't got the heart to say
I'm not in love with you

Just suppose and I should leave you
Take another for my own
Just suppose that I forsake you
Break my vows and leave you alone

Well, I'm ashamed down deep inside
That I have ever been untrue
But I haven't got the heart to say
I'm not in love with you
