We Ought to Know

We’ll I’m so glad I’ve met you
And I’m so glad we’re friends
But I’m trying to forget you
As I feel my heart start to bend

It’s just that I can feel it
There’s magic in the air
And when I try to conceal it
I feel my heart start to tear

And I can hear my heart saying
Please take a step back
‘Cause I’m afraid I’ll get broken
I’m afraid I’ll get cracked

But this doesn’t happen often foolish heart
It’s a welcome type of fear
And then I feel my heart soften
And I hear my heart cheer

He’s saying this could be for real
Or it could be a phase
If I get broken I’ll heal
But I think we should stay

For just a little while longer
Just to see where this goes
But if this feeling grows stronger
Well we should leave I suppose

Because there’s nothing as sharp
As the shards of a heart
That’s been battered or tattered
Or just torn apart

And I say to my heart
Would you please just be calm now
I believe that I can manage
No I will not let you down

She makes a great friend
And that’s exactly what we need
But I’ll lightly tread
No heart, I will not let you bleed

But hey, heart, you could be right
There could be trouble up above
Starting up a friendship
With a girl that we could love

Hey heart
We oughta know better
Hey heart
We oughta know
Hey heart, we oughta know better little buddy
Hey heart
We ought to know
