The Heart Lyrics by Kate Wolf

Lines on the Paper

1977

[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
Hеre is the strongest hеart that anyone has known
Locked up so long and going blind
And in its darkness it does not see
It could break out any time
[Verse 3]
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
[Chorus]
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 any time
It could break out any time
