Follow My Heart
You would think I would learn after all of these years,
After all of the times I would end up in tears,
But the voice is so sweet whispering in my ears…
And you’d think I would know, happens time and again
Not a matter of if… always comes down to when
And the way it turns out is how it’s always been…
It’s so crazy to think t’will be different this time.
It won’t happen again. It’ll turn out just fine.
Just don’t give it a thought and ignore every sign…
But I want to believe and I just want to love
And to live out the life we are all dreaming of.
Then it hits like a rock falling from high above…
When I follow my heart it just leads me all wrong
And I get torn apart like in a country song
I can hear my head screaming, “Look out! Can’t you see?!?”
Still, I jump every time my heart says, “Follow me!”
