At the Heart of Me Songtext
I could fly away
Leave for good today
To a new world
Somewhere far beyond
Or you could set sail
For the sun′s fading trail
And I could watch you
Til you're gone
But it wouldn′t matter now
No, it couldn't change what I see
If a thousand miles lay between us today
You're still at the heart of me
If your face can′t be
Ever here before me
I can always hold you
In my mind
And live in the past
Your ghost gave up at last
More real now
Than passing time
But it wouldn′t matter now
No, it couldn't change what I see
If a thousand miles lay between us today
You′re still at the heart of me
Time's been a shroud
And its left me confused
Surrender to pain
In the name of truth
That sang in my ear
All that I stood to lose
Came what may
Our faith is a well
And deep down, I can tell
I′m as thirsty as a mortal can be
Silence abounds
And it's ringing through town
Like a bell swinging high over me
And it wouldn′t matter now
No, it couldn't change what I see
If a thousand miles lay between us today
You're still at the heart of me
If a thousand miles lay between us today
You′re still at the heart of me
Leave for good today
To a new world
Somewhere far beyond
Or you could set sail
For the sun′s fading trail
And I could watch you
Til you're gone
But it wouldn′t matter now
No, it couldn't change what I see
If a thousand miles lay between us today
You're still at the heart of me
If your face can′t be
Ever here before me
I can always hold you
In my mind
And live in the past
Your ghost gave up at last
More real now
Than passing time
But it wouldn′t matter now
No, it couldn't change what I see
If a thousand miles lay between us today
You′re still at the heart of me
Time's been a shroud
And its left me confused
Surrender to pain
In the name of truth
That sang in my ear
All that I stood to lose
Came what may
Our faith is a well
And deep down, I can tell
I′m as thirsty as a mortal can be
Silence abounds
And it's ringing through town
Like a bell swinging high over me
And it wouldn′t matter now
No, it couldn't change what I see
If a thousand miles lay between us today
You're still at the heart of me
If a thousand miles lay between us today
You′re still at the heart of me
