By Heart

[Verse 1]

Two of a feather, let's spend time together

And silently know (Woah) that maybe means never

On a leather bench seat with her

Head in my neck (Woah)

She asked if I fell, had fallen, was fallin' for her, yeah

Yeah, maybe means never, oh, you know and I know

That maybe means never

[Chorus]

Never learn something you can do by heart

Soon as you do, it comes apart

Hold it tight like a fistful of sand

No hawk, no dove, no two in hand

[Verse 2]

Three time a loser, a beggar, a chooser

I'm learning it slow (Woah), not findin' any clues or

Dark accusers in corner booths, all singin' the blues (Woah)

I asked if she was coy, cunnin' or runnin' with regret

Yeah, maybe means never, well, you know and I know

That maybe means never and

[Chorus]

Never learn something you can do by heart

Soon as you do, it comes apart

Hold it tight like a fistful of sand

No hawk, no dove, no two in hand

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]

Never learn something you can do by heart

Soon as you do, it comes apart

Woah, now, I'm gonna hold it tight like a fistful of sand

No hawk, no dove, no two in hand

[Outro]

(Oh, woah, woah, woah)

(Oh, woah, woah, woah)
