Story Behind The Song

Just whole song happened over a weekend. The hook came about while improvising on the keyboard, the words fell into place as the song was structured. Lead and harmony vocals were a little hurried being recorded in a couple of hours while everyone else was out of the house!

Song Description

Country/pop crossover similar to Eagles, Fleetwood Mac etc. Encouragement for friend who is scared of getting into relationships.

Lyrics

YOUR HEART WONT LET YOU DOWN
©Bob Bentley July 2019

Key: Bb
124 bpm
Country 8 beat

Verse 1
Here we go again, when someone real has come along
Your gonna let her get away
She everything your looking for, time to take some notice
What your heart is trying to say

Chorus
Your heart wont let you down
You've been this way before
Allow yourself a little love
And be sure

Your heart wont let you down
You know it's not a sin
Allow yourself a little love
And let her in

Verse 2
She's looking at you like there's no tomorrow
Don't let your mind go back too far
They don't come round that easy, so just forget your sorrow
Keep your mind on where you are

Chorus
Your heart wont let you down
You've been this way before
Allow yourself to love
And be sure

Your heart wont let you down
You know it's not a sin
Allow yourself a little love
And let her in

Bridge
I'm thinking back a while
You wouldn't take a chance
Don't want another tragedy
Mind games over new romance
Can't bear to hear you say
Time to let your heart break free

Chorus
Your heart wont let you down
You've been here many times
Allow yourself a little love
It's no crime



Your heart wont let you down
You know it's not a sin
Allow yourself a little love
And let her in

Let her in/Your Heart Wont Let You Down.
