Heart Don't Change My Mind
Heart's Farewell: Barbra Streisand's Emotional Goodbye
Lyrics
We said we'd try again but tryin' not enough
We agreed to give it another shot, but effort alone is insufficient.
Actin' like strangers ain't no way of making love
Behaving like strangers is not a way to nurture love.
It's never gonna work, its time we stopped pretending
The relationship is destined to fail, and it's time to stop pretending otherwise.
Time to turn the page, all stories need an ending
It's time to move on; every story needs a conclusion.
It makes no sense to stay
Continuing the relationship is illogical.
Living my life in yesterday
Living in the past is hindering my progress.
I'm leaving, I'm leaving,
Expressing the decision to leave.
And I'm begging you
Begging for understanding and support.
Heart don't change my mind
Pleading with the heart not to change the decision.
Oh heart be strong this time
Encouraging the heart to be resilient this time.
And try to help me tell him goodbye
Requesting the heart's assistance in saying goodbye.
It'll only bring pain for us to stay
Stating that staying will only bring pain.
Oh heart, it's hard for you I know
Acknowledging the difficulty the heart is facing.
Let me let him go
Asking the heart to let go of the attachment.
Don't let me think about how good it was before
Resisting reminiscing about the past.
I know you'd try anything to keep me from that door
Acknowledging efforts to prevent departure.
Its hard to leave him when you've loved him for so long now
Expressing the challenge of leaving after a long period of love.
How can I walk away if he's still holding on now
Questioning how to leave when the other person is still holding on.
I've found the strength today
Discovering the strength to end things.
Look at me I can finally say
Reflecting on personal growth and decisiveness.
It's over, It's over
Declaring the end of the relationship.
So I'm begging you
Begging for support and understanding once again.
Heart don't change my mind
Reiterating the plea for the heart not to change the decision.
Oh heart be strong this time
Encouraging the heart to be strong in maintaining the decision.
And try to help me tell him goodbye
Seeking the heart's assistance in saying goodbye once more.
It'll only bring pain for us to stay
Emphasizing that staying will only result in pain.
Oh heart, it's hard for you I know
Recognizing the emotional difficulty for the heart.
Let me let him go
Requesting the heart to let go of the emotional attachment.
It makes no sense to stay
Reiterating the senselessness of staying in the relationship.
Sad that it has to end this way
Expressing sadness about the unavoidable ending.
It's over, It's over
Affirming the finality of the relationship.
Heart don't change my mind
Repeating the plea for the heart not to change the decision.
Oh heart be strong this time
Encouraging the heart to stay strong.
And try to help me tell him goodbye
Seeking the heart's assistance in the final goodbye.
It'll only bring pain for us to stay
Stating that staying will only bring pain.
Oh heart, it's hard for you I know
Acknowledging the emotional challenge for the heart.
Let me let him go
Requesting the heart to let go of the person emotionally.
