thought I may as well post the whole set, now ...

(took me ages before I could sing this song without getting too choked up with emotion though)

THE HEART ~ Kate Wolf

There is a heart, locked in a box of pain
Wanting so long, to be free
And wanting more, to be in love again
Not believing, anyone can turn the key.
There is a story that's been told before
Of a good love that went bad
And of one who gave so much he gave himself away
And left the heart so empty and so sad.

Friends who come, to feed the heart
Are turned away by the walls within
The heart grows more lonely, in its box of pain
It gives love, but it cannot take it in.
Here is the strongest heart that anyone has known
Locked up so long and going blind
And in its darkness it does not see
It could break out anytime.

There is something, that always seems so clear
From the outside, looking in
When the heart is empty, and it cannot feel
Let someone, fill it once again.
Here is the strongest heart that anyone has known
Locked up so long and going blind
And in its darkness it does not see
It could break out anytime.

And in its darkness, it does not see,
It could break out, anytime
It could break out, anytime

Cheers! RJB
