Hide Your Heart

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 streets She was his possession like a jewel on his crown, Johnny better run, better run Better hide your heart, better hold on tight Say your prayers, 'cause there's trouble tonight When pride and love battle with desire Better hide your heart, 'cause you're playing with fire 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 The word went out that Rosa's messin' with someone, it was on the street Tito looked for Johnny with a vengeance and a gun Johnny better run, better run Better hide your heart, better hold on tight Say your prayers, 'cause there's trouble tonight When pride and love battle with desire Better hide your heart, 'cause you're playing with fire 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 dying, lovers finally understand Better hide your heart, better hold on tight Say your prayers, 'cause there's trouble tonight When pride and love battle with desire Better hide your heart, 'cause you're playing with fire --- Hide Your Heart - Ace Frehley and Frehley's Comet
