The Heart Is A Muscle Lyrics

Break me off a piece of that
And mix it in with a little wine
With someone warm and smart I guess
With a heart in first
And a soul behind

And I
Won't give in
‘Coz I
Wanna try again

There will be no years of silence
In the shadow of regret
I won't let it so betray me
Though my soul got used to it

I will look at love as more than
Just an instrument of pain
And will give myself completely
To the moving and the strange

‘Coz I wanna overcome
And try to love someone

I will not spend the years depleted
Of my willingness to try
It won't hurt this way forever
It ain't worth the overtime

I'm not looking for redemption
Nor some shallow kind of bliss
Lay me down and kiss me deeply
Show me everything I missed

I haven't had enough
And I wanna love someone

I will not hurt like this forever
I'm responding the call
While there's speakers in the outfield
Blasting out my favourite song

I will not play this out discreetly
It is real and unashamed
I am human now and terrified
But want it all the same

‘Coz i wanna overcome
And try to love someone

‘Coz the heart
The heart
The heart
The heart is a muscle
And I wanna make it strong

‘Coz the heart
The heart
The heart
The heart is a muscle now
I wanna make it strong

I let bad love betray me once
And i was barely outta high school then
And I guess I fear the same results
That none will take me as I am

I wanna be loved
I wanna be whole again
So tuck my hair behind my ears
And touch my soul again
The window is wide
The post unfulfilled
And I just ask you to be patient
If you'll have me still

‘Coz I wanna open up
And try to love someone
‘Coz I wanna overcome
And try to love someone

The heart
The heart
The heart
The heart is a muscle
The heart
The heart
The heart
The heart is a muscle now
The heart
The heart
The heart
The heart is a muscle now

I wanna make it strong
