Never Give All The Heart (SMASH Cast Ver.) (Feat. Katharine McPhee)

As a girl I lived in a million homes So I always would keep to myself And my lessons were learned From the stories and poems I would steal from a library shelf Yes the books like the rooms Weren't mine to keep But the words were left behind And I think of them all now when I can't sleep And a poet who read my mind As the wise men once wrote Never give all the heart Well it's easy to see He was writing for me I just wish I could play that part Yes he scribbled that love isn't worth thinking of That is fades out from kiss to kiss If I'd just learned those lines Well just think of the misery I'd missed As the Irish men said Don't put your heart up to play When he warned of the cost And the heart that he lost Mister Yeats really paved the way For the men that I've known Who have clearly shown They've been reading him from the start 'Cause when it comes to me Well their kisses come free But they never give all the heart When he warned of the cost And the heart that he lost Mister Yeats really paved the way For the men that I've known Well they've clearly shown They've been reading him from the start 'Cause each time that I fall They never give all the heart Mmmmmm Mmmm
