I'll Be Here Where The Heart Is - Kim Carnes

Hear the ping, put the phone face down Hide my grin as my heart pounds Stolen moments, precious seconds Behind locked doors Hear the ping, put the phone face down Hold my breath as my heart pounds Walk on eggshells, plan my words Jump at every sound We watch the time, whatever it may be Enjoy a world where it's just you and me Living love songs, soft and slow Sharing secrets only we can know Robbing clocks like we're Bonnie and Clyde On the run just enjoying the ride Just you and me, the world in-between Will we get away with everything we've been? Home is where the heart aches But it's all I've ever known Once believed it was my dream But with you that dream has grown Home is where the heart lies Feelings I can never show When what should feel wrong feels right Wish that I could spend the night But I have to go Homemade dinner, sitcoms on TV Change the bulb that's been dead for weeks Close lipped, goodnight kisses I'll be up soon Order pizza as a special treat Screens are off, homework's complete Bedtime stories, goodnight kisses I'll be up soon Could you give up all that you had planned When no one you know would understand? Could you live a lie hiding who you'd be With no one to trust or confide in but me? We live under covers, our blinders on Don't look ahead or it could be gone Where do we draw the line that we've already crossed When whatever we choose is too great a cost? Home is where the heart aches But it's all I've ever known Once believed it was my dream But with you that dream has grown Home is where the heart lies Feelings I can never show When what should feel wrong feels right Wish that I could spend the night But I have to go When you find forever too late You can't help but make mistakes And you can't let go when it's more than you can take When you find how life should be And you finally feel free How do you go back to what you thought was happy? Home is where the heart aches But it's all I've ever known Once believed it was my dream But with you that dream has grown Home is where the heart lies Feelings I can never show When what should feel wrong feels right Wish that I could spend the night

I felt I was spinning my wheels Before too long the road was calling I packed everything I own So sure that I was leaving this small town life behind for good And not a single tear was falling It took leaving for me to understand Sometimes your dreams just aren't what life has planned Mama said home is where the heart is When I left that town I made it all the way to West Virginia And that's where my heart found Exactly where I'm supposed to be It didn't take much time It's just south of the Mason Dixon line It's just south of the Mason Dixon line I worked third shift at an all-night diner Only stayed to save a little money for Enough gas to make it to the East Coast That's when I saw the brightest pair of Deep blue eyes walking straight into my life And every night we talked 'til it became so clear And I could feel those dreams inside shifting gears 'Cause love brought me here Mama said home is where the heart is When I left that town I made it all the way to West Virginia And that's where my heart found Exactly where I'm supposed to be It didn't take much time It's just south of the Mason Dixon line It's just south of the Mason Dixon line And I'm standing in my veil about to say I do As mama smiles with tear drops in her eyes And then I realize there's something mama always knew Love is what I really left to find She said home is where the heart is When I left that town I made it all the way to West Virginia And that's where my heart found Exactly where I'm supposed to be It didn't take much time It's just south of the Mason Dixon line It's just south of the Mason Dixon line Mama said home is where the heart is It's just south of the Mason Dixon line Mama said home is where the heart is It's just south of the Mason Dixon line
