My Heart
My Heart
I once was asked what kind of heart beats within my chest
A simple heart was my reply, a heart that tries it's best
It's a heart that wouldn't hesitate to walk a friend's last mile
A heart that’s fierce but still can melt when it sees a child’s smile
Sometimes it is a selfish heart that doesn't like to break
At other times it’s a fun filled heart that loves a birthday cake
It's a heart that beats with tenderness for the people in its life
A heart that's sometimes worn down from worrying and strife
Sometimes it is a restless heart that longs for some adventures
But mostly it’s a contented heart that enjoys life’s simple pleasures
It’s a heart that’s filled with faith and hope and lots of love to share
This heart that beats within my chest, it beats because it cares
