Hear How My Heart Beats

Winter took a lifetime
Froze my bones swallowed daylight
I wandered through the shadows
When the sun squeezed through my window
Hear how my heart beats
Playing out to the drums
Feel how the earth moves
Warmed by the sun
My soul’s up and singing out
My body grooving
Bare feet in the grass
Hear how my heart beats
Pounding out my chest
Snow stuck on the rooftops
While I was drinking teardrops
The city’s slowly rising
And the blossom softly shining
Hear how my heart beats
Playing out to the drums
Feel how the earth moves
Warmed by the sun
My soul’s up and singing out
My body grooving
Bare feet in the grass
Hear how my heart beats
Pounding out my chest
No pain no gain I’ve heard it all
No hurt no shame won’t make you grow
But I yearn for seas of green and dressed up trees
Hear how my heart beats
Playing out to the drums
Feel how the earth moves
Warmed by the sun
My soul’s up and singing out
My body grooving
Bare feet in the grass
Hear how my heart beats
Pounding out my chest
