[Intro]
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la

[Verse 1]
So let them say it's wrong
For me to love you
They could never feel
The way that I do when we kiss
When we're close like this

[Pre-Chorus]
They can't see inside my soul
They can't know the love we know
All they do is waste their time
They can never change my mind

[Chorus]
It's what my heart says
That is what I listen to (I listen to it)
It's what my heart feels
That tells me, tells me what to do (Tells me what to do)
It's what my heart knows
That's the only, the only truth
I know is real
All I hear is what my heart says to me

[Post-Chorus]
La, la, la, la, la (La, la, la, la)
What my heart says

[Verse 2]
Let them say that I'm a fool to fall so deeply
'Cause they will never ever be loved so completely
How can they even talk that way?

[Pre-Chorus]
They can't see it through my eyes
They can't feel this love inside
All their words don't mean a thing
They can't change the way I feel
No, no

[Chorus]
It's what my heart says (No, no)
That is what I listen to (I listen to it)
It's what my heart feels (It feels so right)
That tells me, tells me what to do (It tells me, tells me)
It's what my heart knows
That's the only, the only truth
I know is real
All I hear is what my heart says to me

[Bridge]
And I have never felt so sure about anything
See, you are the one
The one that I need
It doesn't matter what they think or what they say
I'm loving you anyway, oh
All I know is what I feel

[Chorus]
It's what my heart says (Yeah, yeah)
That is what I listen to (What I listen to)
It's what my heart feels
That tells me, tells me what to do (It tells me what to do)
It's what my heart knows (Oh no)
That's the only, the only truth
I know is real
All I hear is what my heart says to me
(All I hear is what my heart says)

[Outro]
La, la, la, la, la
What my heart says (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Oh-oh, what my heart says
