The Heart That Sings

Verse 1

Here, in the silence when it hurts to be alive

A song comes softly out of nowhere in my mind

Like an old friend, like a broken lullaby

A light to lead me in the middle of the night

Verse 2

Oh, when my heart is full of sorrow and pain

It sounds like fire, it sounds like pouring rain

So comes the music like a river through my veins

It sets me free and then it pulls me back again

Chorus

This is the voice within

This is the heart that sings

The part of me that never dies

The voice that gives me wings

A prayer that cries

And takes me to the other side

And when I lose the strength to carry on

The music goes

It lifts me up and carries on (carries on)

The music never lets me down

Verse 3

Love, when you leave me, you still linger in the air

Like the echo of a song I hear everywhere

When I can't breathe at all, the music gives me air

It tells me secrets that I never knew were there

Chorus

It is the voice within (voice within)

It is the heart that sings (heart that sings)

The part of me that never dies

The voice that gives me wings

A prayer that cries

And takes me to the other side

And when I lose the strength to carry on

The music goes

It lifts me up and carries on (carries on)

The music never lets me down

Bridge

Oh, I can feel it growing, I can feel it strong

Like a river flowing

When the world is closing in on me

I reach into the music and I find the key

And when I need a miracle, it's there for me

Chorus

This is the voice within

This is the heart that sings

The part of me that never dies

The voice that gives me wings

A prayer that cries

And takes me to the other side (other side)

And when I lose the strength to carry on

The music goes

Outro

This is the voice that takes me (the music)

This is the song that saves me (the music)

This is the heart that sings (the music)

The part of me that never dies

This is my life (the music)

This is my truth (the music)

This is the voice within

It never lets me down
