Slow Down, Heart

[So] Slow down, Heart.
His love was not meant for you.

Stop your beating, now.
It's not worth it in the end.

Stop your loving, your endless loving.
Don't you know it's only hurting?

Don't let let that blood rush faster,
You'll only fall farther.

Wipe those tears and stand up strong.
This has been going on far too long.

Pick yourself up,
Forget about him.
Forget about every hopeful whim.

Stop your crying, now.
Life is not a world of pain.

Hush, little baby,
Go back to sleep.
Go back to your dreaming of the things you keep.

Promise me you won't shed a tear.
Your cries are not for him to hear.

He is undeserving of that love.
The love you've been hoping and dreaming of.

Don't you worry now, child.
You'll find someone.
Someday your prince will come.

But for now, please let go.
Let him go.
He does not know all that we know.

Take a deep breath and look his way.
You'll never forget him in all of your days.

To remember is not to ache.
Please do not ache for him.

Only his memories will lie with you.
So slow down, Heart.
You'll love again.

Slow down, slow down.
Way, way down.
Slow down, Heart.
You'll find someone who loves you more.
