Straight to the Heart of Me

It's a tender connection
Between you and me
I see by your expression
You don't see what I see
Staring into the future
Don't know what lies ahead
Let me paint you a picture
And we'll see what it says

CHORUS:
Through the doubt and confusion
There's one thing that's clear
There is no solution
But I have no fear
Cuz regret is too easy
But redemption is free
So I'll leave the door open
Straight to the heart of me

Sometimes we're like phantoms
That bump in the night
Sometimes we're like angels
Floating into the light
Sometimes we're like strangers
So distant and cold
Afraid of what's broken
Unsure of what's whole

CHORUS

We shoulder a burden
Right here where we stand
We love with conviction
And some sleight of hand
Ah, the dangers are many
And the mercies are few
Oh, but I won't lay any
More excuses on you

CHORUS
