HIDE YOUR HEART
Paul Stanley, Desmond Child, Holly Knight
[Rhy. Fig 1a]
[Rhy. Fig 1b]
[Rhy. Fig 2a] (3x)
Johnny saw her riding on a street car named Desire,
his fate was sealed
She could see him coming like a hundred other liars,
it was no big deal
Rosa had a lover on the shady side of town,
Tito, he was king of the streets
[Rhy. Fig 2c]
She was his possession like a jewel on his crown,
Johnny better run, better run
[Rhy. Fig 1a]
Better hide your heart, better hold on tight
Say your prayers, 'cause there's trouble tonight
[Rhy. Fig 1c]
When pride and love battle with desire
Better hide your heart, 'cause you're playing with fire
[Rhy. Fig 1a]
Ah ah ah ah hey hey hey du du du du du du du du du
[Rhy. Fig 1b]
Ah ah ah ah hey hey hey du du du du du du du du du
[Rhy. Fig 2a] (2x)
The ride was over but the story doesn't end,
he took her heart
She looked him in the eye and said they couldn't meet again
You could see the trouble start
[Rhy. Fig 2b]
The word went out that Rosa's messin' with someone,
it was on the street
[Rhy. Fig 2c]
Tito looked for Johnny with a vengeance and a gun
Johnny better run, better run
[Rhy. Fig 1a]
Better hide your heart, better hold on tight
Say your prayers, 'cause there's trouble tonight
[Rhy. Fig 1c]
When pride and love battle with desire
Hide your heart, 'cause you're playing with fire, c'mon
[Rhy. Fig 1a] (2x)
Ah ah ah ah hey hey hey du du du du du du du du du
Ah ah ah ah hey hey hey du du du du du du du du du
Yeah
[Rhy. Fig 1a]
[Rhy. Fig 1b]
[Rhy. Fig 3]
Listen!
Johnny's holdin' Rosa on a rooftop in the night,
as time stood still
They couldn't hear him coming 'til he had them both in sight
You could feel a chill
A shot ran out like thunder and the blood was on her hands,
with nothing won.
When someone lies there dying, lovers finally understand.
[Rhy. Fig 1a]
Better hide your heart, better hold on tight
Say your prayers, 'cause there's trouble tonight
[Rhy. Fig 1c]
When pride and love battle with desire
Better hide your heart, 'cause you're playing with fire
[Rhy. Fig 1a] (2x)
Ah ah ah ah hey hey hey du du du du du du du du du.
(Hide your heart, hold on tight)
Ah ah ah ah hey hey hey du du du du du du du du du.
(When pride and love battle with desire.
Hide your heart, 'cause you're playing with fire)
[Rhy. Fig 1a] (repeat and fade)
Ah ah ah ah hey hey hey du du du du du du du du du.
(Hide your heart, yeah, hold on tight)
Ah ah ah ah hey hey hey du du du du du du du du du.
(Say your prayers, 'cause there's trouble tonight)
Ah ah ah ah hey hey hey du du du du du du du du du.
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Ah ah ah ah hey hey hey du du du du du du du du du.
(When pride and love battle with desire.
Hide your heart, 'cause you're playing with fire)
