Guy Sebastian - Cover on My Heart Lyrics

Guy’s new single (as of April 2007) is Cover on My Heart. He performed it at the Good Friday Appeal for the Royal Children’s Hospital in Melbourne.

As I have done with all other singles off his latest release Closer to the Sun, here’s the lyrics so that you can sing real loud in the car or the office.

By the way, you can access Elevator Love here and Taller, Stronger, Better here.

Cover On My Heart

Everyday feels all the same
9 to 5 gets so mundane
But something breaks with just one glimpse of you
I would stare so long awhile
Trying to tell you with my eyes
I didn’t say a thing I thought you knew

I wish I never did assume, cos.

 

Chorus:
I was gonna tell you today
I even wrote the words I would say
I finally found the courage
But now it’s too far
It took me all this time to reveal
What everything about you does to me
So tell me why did I keep a cover on my heart

 

Spent all night trying to explore just
How I’d tell you I adore ya
And how I’m moved by every word you say

 

But today there’s an empty space
I’ve found you gone without a trace
I wish that I coulda told you yesterday
Maybe then you would’ve stayed

 

Chorus

 

It feels like my point of existence
Has vanished with you in the distance
Whatever it takes I’ll persist
Till I see your face again

 

Chorus
