Loving dearly can bring heartaches, Footprints in the shifting sands of time. That's the journey that a heart takes Though the words may rhyme. We all want to be loved, We all need to love and be needed. Until someone comes with a smile, Melting your heart away, And you give it away unconditionally. But when it's done, You've lost and you've gained. For where there is joy there is pain. Your broken heart learns to love again. That's the journey that a heart takes Time and time again. Until someone comes with a smile, Melting your heart away, And you give it away unconditionally. The road may wind And your heart may roam, But true love will find you again And lead your heart on, gently back home. That's the journey that a heart makes Til at last it's home.
