You conjure up your courage and you finally make the telephone call
You get a busy signal else it rings and no-one answers at all
And then your mind begins imagining things that could or couldn`t be so
I know the feelin` that you`re feelin` it`s a feelin` that I`m feelin`
And I want you to know
I`m gonna teach my heart to bend instead of breakin`
Teach myself to lean and not to fall
Teach my heart to bend instead of breakin`
I`ve taken all I can take and that`s all
I`m gonna teach my heart to bend instead of breakin`
Teach myself to lean and not to fall
Teach my heart to bend instead of breakin`
I`ve taken all I can take and that`s all
