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 'bout us
The story of a heart The story all of it mine Then 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
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
I try to resist But the images keep coming through So many years Still I'm defenceless
The house by the lake His hands resting awhile on the oars Speaking with quiet conviction Carefully unlocking doors
The story of a heart The story all of it mine Then 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
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 giving up I look for you everywhere Time went by and sadness took the place of despair In a way you stayed with me till death do us part Like a shadow deep in my heart, forever
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
Story of a heart A story all of it mine Then you took it from me Every glorious line All emotions pent up inside, my story
It is a story of a heart I should have known it from the start And you will take it away, you will take it away For now it's not in me Ah ha I want it back, I want it back, I want it back Give it to me, give my page to my heart
Story of a heart A story all of it mine Then you took it from me Every glorious line All emotions pent up inside, my story
