Listen To My Heart

I've been down so many roads and seen so many places. Tears fill my eyes when I recall some well remembered faces. It seems I should have stayed, just when I chose to part. I didn't stop to take the time to listen to my heart. Faces from a troubled past -- Places best forgotten -- join together with some things forever unforgotten. For those that I passed by there is a counterpart. You reached out and taught me to listen to my heart. The past will never be undone. It's part of history. But, here today, I'm glad to say there is a you and me. A yesterday remembered -- One that stands apart -- You came to me, I had no choice -- But listen to my heart.
