If hearts could talk they would tell untold stories

If hearts could talk they would reveal dangerous secrets

If hearts could talk they would profess feelings never expressed

If hearts could talk they would speak words never existed

If only hearts could talk!

If hearts could cry they would fill an ocean of tears

If hearts could cry they would release all hidden pain

If hearts could cry they would confess unfinished emotions

If hearts could cry they would show how vulnerable we are

If only hearts could cry!

If hearts could walk they would leave before it is too late

If hearts could walk they would hide in a safe place

If hearts could walk they would go after what they want

If hearts could walk they would wander alone with no bonds

If only hearts could walk!

If hearts could be stronger they won’t break with every blow

If hearts could be wiser they won’t fall for every soul

If hearts could be in control;

A butterfly they will be, fragile yet full of glow
