My Own Heart

MY OWN HEART - by Carroll Bryant

I believe ... in every waking hour

I come alive from inside to outside of my dreams

And in your perfect blue eyes, I drown like I am in the sea

Drowning perhaps outside your love or inside all of your needs

I don't understand your fashion, you take everything so seriously

You pull me into your arms, I pull away to be free

Free to breathe with my own heart

Free to just believe

And I believe ... in every waking hour

You come alive from inside to outside of my dreams

And in my perfect disguise, I hide like you are watching me

Hiding perhaps outside my love or inside all of your needs

I don't understand your passion, you make everything a conspiracy

You pull me into your arms, I pull away to be free

Free to breathe with my own heart

Free to just believe

And I believe ... in every waking hour

In every fantasy

I go to sleep with my eyes wide open

Only to never see

That it's nothing like I thought it would become

Or wanted it to be

This feeling comes and goes with the wind

That blows far across the sea

And the secret lives in my own heart

Fallen hopes and fallen dreams

Stand alone and be killed

Stand alone to just be free

And I believe ... in every waking hour

In every vital moment

Racing to discover somebody's hidden treasure

Only to uncover the secret to all pleasures

And the secret lives in my own heart

So wait until i tell you

I know you won't believe it

You will even call me a liar

You pull me into your arms

I pull away to be free

Free to just believe

Free to be with you

And I believe ... in every waking hour
