Heart Please Be Still 
Don’t tell her you’re achin’
You’re pumping the tears into my eyes
She just mustn’t know the story of your breakin’
I can’t smile when part of me cries

When she played around 
I thought that she was jokin’
And when I learned the truth 
You had done been broken

So, Heart Please Be Still 
Don’t tell her you’re aching
You just mustn’t tell her on me

Ah come in Hal

Butterball now

Heart Please Be Still 
Don’t tell her of your sorrow
I’m afraid that your beating is too loud
They say the night is long
Before the bright tomorrow
A silver lining to every cloud

Wish the cloud would break
Before she hears you’re pleading
I don’t want her to know
That she’s all I’m needing

So, Heart Please Be Still 
Don’t tell her you’re aching
You just mustn’t tell her on me
