Hide Your Heart
Johnny saw her riding on a street car named Desire, his fate was sealed
She could see him coming like a hundred other liars, it was no big deal
Rosa had a lover on the shady side of town, Tito, he was king of the streets
She was his possession like a jewel on his crown, Johnny better run, better run
Better hide your heart, better hold on tight
Say your prayers, ´cause there´s trouble tonight
When pride and love battle with desire
Better hide your heart, ´cause you´re playing with fire
The ride was over but the story doesn´t end, he took her heart
She looked him in the eye and said they couldn´t meet again
You could see the trouble start
The word went out that Rosa´s messin´ with someone, it was on the street
Tito looked for Johnny with a vengeance and a gun
Johnny better run, better run
Johnny´s holdin´ Rosa on a rooftop in the night, as time stood still
They couldn´t hear him coming ´til he had them both in sight
You could feel a chill
A shot ran out like thunder and the blood was on her hands, with nothing won
When someone lies dying, lovers finally understand
