Brink Of Disaster Lyrics By Lesley Gore

    i’m your conscience listen to me
    don’t give in ’cause it’s a conspiracy
    i cannot help myself
    i just can’t stay away from him

    if you went back it wouldn’t last
    how come you won’t learn from your past mistakes
    my heart keeps saying yes
    but you say to say no to him
    i’m sorry i must go to him again

    ’cause my heart has played the game before
    my head says nevermore
    i should know what is right for me
    and i know i’ve lost before i start
    but tell that to my heart
    it’s so hard for me to think
    when my heart is on the brink
    of disaster

    pardon me i must interrupt
    you admit that he’s not your cup of tea
    it doesn’t matter ’cause
    when my heart is involved
    all my problems can’t be solved
    by what’s right

    ’cause my heart has played the game before
    my head says nevermore
    i should know what is right for me
    and i know i’ve lost before i start
    but tell that to my heart
    it’s so hard for me to think
    when my heart is on the brink
    of disaster
