Heart In Motion

Hear me speak what's on my mind
Let me give this testimony
Reaffirm that you will find
That you are my one and only.

No exception to this rule
I'm simple but i'm no fool
I've got a witness happy to say
Every hour, every day.

Every heartbeat bears your name
Loud and clear they stake my claim
My red blood runs true blue
And every heartbeat belongs to you.

Classic case of boy meets girl
Moving in the same direction
You're not asking for the world
I'm not asking for perfection.

Just a love that's well designed
For passing the test of time
I'm here to tell you
I'm here to stay
Every hour, every day.

Every heartbeat bears your name
Loud and clear they stake my claim
Ask anyone and they'll tell you it's true
Every heartbeat belongs to you.

Every heartbeat bears your name
Loud and clear they stake my claim, yeah
My red blood runs true blue
And every heartbeat belongs to you.

Oh, oh, oh, oh.
Yeah sure maybe i'm on the edge
But i love you baby and like i said
I'm here to tell you
I'm here to stay
Every hour, every day.

Every heartbeat bears your name
Loud and clear they stake my claim
Ask anyone and they'll tell you it's true
Every heartbeat belongs to you.

Every heartbeat bears your name (every)
Loud and clear they stake my claim, yeah
My red blood runs true blue
And every heartbeat belongs to you.

Every heartbeat bears your name (every)
Loud and clear they stake my claim, yeah
(every heartbeat)
And every heartbeat belongs to you.

Every heartbeat bears your name
Loud and clear they stake my claim
Ask anyone and they'll tell you it's true
Every heartbeat belongs to you.

I see her as a little girl hiding in her room
She takes another bath and she sprays her momma's perfume
To try to wipe away the scent he left behind
But it haunts her mind.

You see she's his little rag, nothing more than just a waif
And he's mopping up his need, she is tired and afraid
Maybe she'll find a way through these awful years to disappear.

Ask me if i think there's a god up in the heaven
Where did he go in the middle of her shame?
Ask me if i think there's a god up in the heavens
I see no mercy and no one down here's naming names
Nobody's naming names.

Now she's looking in the mirror at a lovely woman face
No more frightened little girl, like she's gone without a trace
Still she leaves the light burning in the hall
It's hard to sleep at all.

Still she crawls up in her bed acting quiet as a mouse
Deep inside she's listening for a creaking in the house
But noone's left to harm her, she's finally safe and sound
There's a peace she's found.

Ask her how she knows there's a god up in the heaven
Where did he go in the middle of her shame?
Ask her how she knows there's a god up in the heavens
She said his mercy is bringing her life again.

Ask me how i know there's a god up in the heaven
(how do you know?)
Where did he go in the middle of her shame
(where did he go?)
Ask me how i know there's a god up in the heavens
(how do you know?)
She said his mercy is bringing her life again
She's coming to life again.

He's in the middle of her pain
In the middle of her shame
Mercy brings life
He's in the middle
Mercy in the middle.

So ask me how i know
Ask me how i know, yeah
Ask me how i know there's a god up in the heaven
(how do you know?)
Ask me how i know there's a god up in the heavens
(how do you know?)
Yeah, ask me how i know
(how do you know?)
Ask me
Ask me
Ask me how i know
(how do you know?)
There's a god up in the heavens
Ask me how i know there's a god up in the heavens.

I saw you walking by yourself
Your eyes were crying out for help
I know you feel your pain is more
Then anyone's been hurt before.

I know love hurts when it's over
If you wanna cry it's alright
You're like a fallen soldier
But you just can't lay down and die.

You've got to remember
You're not alone in this world
Always remember
You're not alone in this world.

The moment that i looked at you
I recognized the killing truth
You really think there's no way out
But if you let me, i can help you now.

Through all these shattered emotions
There's a lesson to learn
So come on let me hold you closer
Love can soothe what love has burned.

You've got to remember
You're not alone in this world
Always remember
You're not alone in this world.
You've got to remember
Never alone, never alone, never, never alone.

I got to tell you now baby
Through all these shattered emotions
There's a lesson to learn
So come on let me hold you closer
Love can soothe what love has burned.

You've got to remember
You're not alone in this world
Always remember
You're not alone in this world.

You've got to remember (got to remember)
You're not alone in this world
Always remember (got to remember)
You're not alone in this world.

You've got to remember (got to remember)
You're not alone in this world
Always remember (got to remember)
You're not alone in this world.
You've got to remember.

I will be walking one day
Down a street far away
And see a face in the crowd and smile
Knowing how you made me laugh
Hearing sweet echoes of you from the past
I will remember you.

Look in my eyes while you're near
Tell me what's happening here
See that i don't want to say good-bye
Our love is frozen in time
I'll be your champion and you'll be mine
I will remember
I will remember you.

Later on
When this fire is an ember
Later on
When the night's not so tender
Given time
Though it's hard to remember darlin'
I will be holding
I'll still be holding to you
I will remember you.

So many years come and gone
And yet the memory is strong
One word we never could learn
Good-bye
True love is frozen in time
I'll be your champion and you'll be mine
I will remember you
So please remember
I will remember you
I will remember you
I will remember you
I will remember you.

We said our promises by candlelight
You hold my hands, i was dressed in white
We were young
How can we see that far?
How can we see that far?

I knew i wanted you like no one else
I told my momma that i'd found myself
In your eyes
How can we see that far?
How can we see that far?

But like your daddy said
The same sun that melts the wax can harden clay
And the same rain that drowns the rat will grow the hay
And the mighty wind that knocks us down
If we lean into it
Will drive our fears away.

And when i woke in the dead of night
To hold my hands, push away the fright
Life had come--a son
How can we see that far?

Yeah, we were nervous and a little scared
Until the music of our baby's cry
Filled the air
How can we see that far?

But like your daddy said
The same sun that melts the wax can harden clay
And the same rain that drowns the rat will grow the hay
And the mighty wind that knocks us down
If we lean into it
Will drive our fears away.

We might die
We might live
We could hurt each other badly
Do things, things so hard to forgive
Ooooh, and if time is not our friend
Your mind might forget me before the end
And oh, i cannot
I cannot look that far.

But like your daddy said
How can we see that far?
The same sun that melts the wax can harden clay
And the same rain that drowns the rat will grow the hay
And the mighty wind that knocks us down
If we lean into it
How can we see that far?
Got to lean into it
Will drive our fears away
It's the same sun, yeah
And the same rain
It's the same sun
And the same rain.
