Lyrics
You save your money for all the things that you adore,
but do you really save yourself the same way?
If I had a nickel for every piece of my heart that tore
as I tried to get your gaze into me
Heart is what your love is after, but how do you serve your master?
Each and every day there's a price you must pay.
Turn out the light upstairs and turn off these petty cares,
there's something to do here that I know I can believe.
All the reflections in the window...forgot they were made to be
seen through. Helpless I watche my hope become my need.
Heart is what your love is after, but how do you serve your master?
Each and every day there's a price you must pay.
You sense what you need to know...
The faith that could lead you thru night, the song in your soul.
You said you wanna know, so...
Take heed of the song tonight, the faith in your soul.
You can call it home, and noone needs to know.
A place to grow, a gift from stillness only in the night.
I remember how I held you in the light of an angel and I,
I remember changing from your lover to your plan.
There's always something strengthening, even in your face it can
remain unseen. Will you squander your attention on another day?
If heart is what your love is after, then how do you spell disaster?
Just look into the distance and let this moment slip away.
You sense what you need to know...
The faith that could lead you thru night, the song in your soul.
You said you wanna know, so...
Take heed of the song tonight, the faith in your soul.
You can call it home, and noone needs to know.
A place to grow, you can finally let some sunlight touch your dreams
No, it's not as far as it seems, this is the dream.
