Lyrics
I know there’s something in the wake of your smileI get a notion from the look in your eyes, yeahYou’ve built a love but that love falls apartYour little piece of Heaven turns too dark
Listen to your heart when he’s calling for youListen to your heart, there’s nothing else you can doI don’t know where you’re going and I don’t know whyBut listen to your heart before you tell him goodbye
Sometimes you wonder if this fight is worthwhileThe precious moments are all lost in the tide, yeahThey’re swept away and nothing is what is seemsThe feeling of belonging to your dreams
Listen to your heart when he’s calling for youListen to your heart, there’s nothing else you can doI don’t know where you’re going and I don’t know whyBut listen to your heart before you tell him goodbye
And there are voices that want to be heardSo much to mention but you can’t find the wordsThe scent of magic, the beauty that’s been (beauty that’s been)When love was wilder than the wind
Listen to your heart (take a listen to it) when he’s calling for youListen to your heart (take a listen to it) there’s nothing else you can doI don’t know where you’re going and I don’t know whyBut listen to your heart before, oh
Listen to your heart (take a listen to it) when he’s calling for youListen to your heart (take a listen to it) there’s nothing else you can doI don’t know where you’re going and I don’t know whyBut listen to your heart beforeYou tell him goodbye
Listen to your heartListen to your heart (take a listen to it)Listen to your heartListen to your heart (take a, take a listen to it)Listen to your heartListen to your heart (oh, oh)Listen to your heart (oh, ooh, oh)Listen to your heart (oh, oh, oh)Listen to your heart (oh, oh)Listen to your heart (oh, oh, oh)Listen to your heart (oh, oh)Listen to your heart (oh, yeah, yeah, yeah)Listen to your heart (oh, oh)
