[Verse 1]
If I took my two lips and gave them to another
And if my two lips could pretend 'til the end that they were true
With every kiss and every sigh (Every sigh)
My two lips would tell a lie (Tell a lie)
Because they couldn't be true, when my heart belongs to you
[Verse 2]
If I took my two arms and gave them to another
And if they could hold and enfold him so he thought they were true
I know with every warm caress (Warm caress)
I'd be longing to confess (To confess)
That they couldn't be true, when my heart belongs to you
[Bridge]
Every time his eyes met mine
I would want to run and hide
'Cause I would start to wonder if he could see
The tears that were crying inside
[Verse 3]
If I took my two hands and let another guy hold him
And if they could squeeze him and please him so he thought they were true
Every time our hands would touch (Our hands would touch)
I would want to say so much (Say so much)
That they couldn't be true, when my heart belongs to you, baby
[Outro]
That they couldn't be true, when my heart belongs to you, it belongs to you
That they couldn't be true, when my heart belongs to you
If I took my two lips and gave them to another
And if my two lips could pretend 'til the end that they were true
With every kiss and every sigh (Every sigh)
My two lips would tell a lie (Tell a lie)
Because they couldn't be true, when my heart belongs to you
[Verse 2]
If I took my two arms and gave them to another
And if they could hold and enfold him so he thought they were true
I know with every warm caress (Warm caress)
I'd be longing to confess (To confess)
That they couldn't be true, when my heart belongs to you
[Bridge]
Every time his eyes met mine
I would want to run and hide
'Cause I would start to wonder if he could see
The tears that were crying inside
[Verse 3]
If I took my two hands and let another guy hold him
And if they could squeeze him and please him so he thought they were true
Every time our hands would touch (Our hands would touch)
I would want to say so much (Say so much)
That they couldn't be true, when my heart belongs to you, baby
[Outro]
That they couldn't be true, when my heart belongs to you, it belongs to you
That they couldn't be true, when my heart belongs to you
