Story of a Heart

This is my story

A story of a heart

And all of it mine

It must have been him

Just a glimpse of a face in the crowd

That's all it takes

My heart is racing

I stand in a trance

As I stare at the back of a bus

Knowing there's no use denying

I can't stop thinking about us

The story of a heart

The story all of it mine

And you took it from me

Every glorious line

I was safe and warm

And now I'm out in the cold

And I know I shouldn't have told my story

I try to resist

But the images keep coming through

So many years

Still I'm defenseless

The house by the lake

His hands resting a while on the oars

Speaking with quiet conviction

Carefully unlocking doors

The story of a heart

I laid myself open wide

Let you read the pages

Where the ink hadn't dried

All emotions pent up inside, my story

Did he see me

Or did I just imagine it all?

Putting a face on a stranger

A face I find more and more hard to recall

Never given up

I look for you everywhere

Time went by and sadness took the place of despair

In a way you'll stay with me 'til death do us part

Like a shadow deep in my heart forever

(The story of a heart

The story all of it mine)

It's a story of a heart

(And you took it from me

Every glorious line)

A story of a heart

(I was safe and warm

And now I'm out in the cold)

I'm giving it back

(And I know I shouldn't have told my story)

The story of a heart

I laid myself open wide

Let you read the pages

Where the ink hadn't dried

Swept away and lost in love what was I to do?

I just had to give it to you, my story

A story of a heart...

And all of it mine...
