Don't Let A Thief Steal Into Your Heart

Richard Thompson


Don't let a thief steal into your heart 
Or you may end up broken hearted 
Don't let a whisper tear you apart 
Or you'll be right back where you started 

How many days does a man think he has 
That he can spend his whole time dreamin' 
How many schemes is one man thinkin' of 
And does he think he's the only one scheming 

Don't let a thief steal into your heart 
Or you may end up broken hearted 
Don't let a whisper tear you apart 
Or you'll be right back where you started 

Stop your lies and stop your cheating 
It never did you no good, no good 
How can you say you will when you want to 
When you know you never would if you could 

Don't let a thief steal into your heart 
Or you may end up broken hearted 
Don't let a whisper tear you apart 
Or you'll be right back where you started 

Everyone is in love with money 
Strange news 'cause they say that love is blind 
How many times did you meet somebody 
Who said they had some real peace of mind 

Don't let a thief steal into your heart 
Or you may end up broken hearted 
Don't let a whisper tear you apart 
Or you'll be right back where you started
