Only the heart knows

Only the heart knows (lyrics inspired by Chris Geith’s piano composition “Only the heart knows”)

Only the heart knows

Only the heart yearns

The passion in me grows

Your love’s pyre burns

Breathing and dreaming of you

To your memories I am true

In waking I would chant your story

In remembrance of your love’s glory

°

Only the heart dreams

A day dream it seems

Only the heart feels

What the soul conceals

I take your hand walking into tomorrow

Walking this path forever by your side

In your love we are free from all sorrow

By you the moon will rest all tide

°

Only the heart knows

Only the heart shows

All its love in pure delight

Your face is my morning light

Whenever I see your face I feel secure

Only your heartbeat can be my cure

Your love allows me all to withstand

Till the end of time I hold your hand

°

Walking hand in hand with your breath

Softly blowing silk against my cheek

I fear nothing not even death

Oh Lord with this love I’m no longer weak

°

Only the heart knows

Only the heart grows

As I travel in your light’s trail

You strengthen my heart once so frail

Reaching out to you high above

I feel your hand like a satin glove

Nobody can hold me back

Your love keeps me on track

°

There will never be another love for me

There will never be another face to see

°

Life comes often with challenges

But your love all efforts avenges

For love lifts you to the skies

A lover your heart never denies

°

There will never be another love for me

There will never be another face to see

°

Walking hand in hand with your breath

Softly blowing silk against my cheek

I fear nothing not even death

Oh Lord with this love I am no longer weak
