Finder's Keepers

Where my heart lives there you are
Which means that you're not very far 
Safe and sound inside my chest 
You dwell within, you're not a guest
Sometimes my heart beats twice as fast
I think because back in the past
We met before we both were born 
And at that time our love was sworn
I gave a piece of me to you
You promised you would say, I do
You gave a piece of you to me
I also promised willingly

Born separately we did our thing
I learned guitar, you learned to sing 
And on we went until one day
Our two paths crossed along the way
We started playing on a team
And then I had a vivid dream
I said I loved you then and there
From somewhere music filled the air
And when I woke my outlook changed
My heart completely rearranged 
I couldn't get you off my mind
That piece I gave right then did find
