Crossroad of the Heart

Verse 1

My heart's a crossroad where the fences fall

A welcome mat for one and all

I've read the old books by candlelight

Found the same truth burning bright

Pre-Chorus

Not about the names we give the flame

Just that somewhere somebody came

Chorus

And love's the only language I know how to speak

The only ground where my soul feels week

From the chapel floor to the desert stone

I ain't ever walking alone

Love's the only promise I'll ever keep

Verse 2

Grandma's Bible on the windowsill

A prayer rug pointing past the hill

They both whisper when the night gets long

Same old comfort in a different song

Pre-Chorus

Not about the road but where it leads

Planting seeds in the heart's good weeds

Chorus

And love's the only language I know how to speak

The only ground where my soul feels week

From the chapel floor to the desert stone

I ain't ever walking alone

Love's the only promise I'll ever keep

Bridge

Let 'em argue over names and lines

I'll be out here counting stars and signs

Every bell that rings is singing true

Calling me back to the same old You

Chorus

Yeah love's the only language I know how to speak

The only ground where my soul feels week

From the chapel floor to the desert stone

I ain't ever walking alone

Love's the only promise I'll ever keep

Outro

Mm-mm

The only promise I'll ever keep
