Louden Swain - Like The Heart Goes

Something's so inviting first thing in the morning
I'm as equally frightened by the end of the day
I got sand in my pockets
It kinda weighs me down
But I'm happy and holy and free
Smoke fills my belly, a drink in my lungs
Well I may not be an addict but I'm turning into one
I got a voice in my pocket
It kinda weighs me down
But I'm happy and homely and free
Happy and lonely and free

There's just one way that I need to be
I took what you said and I put it on its feet
If this is the day, just let it beat
Like the heart goes
Like the heart goes

Just because I'm sad don't mean that I'm unhappy
Because I'm a sinner don't mean I'm not a saint
So I stay under covers, longing for another
Until I'm happy and lonely and free

There's just one way that I need to be
I took what you said and I put it on its feet
If this is the day, just let it beat
Like the heart goes

Where do I count today?
I'm closing it down today
Today

Next day begins where the last one had ended
What do I do with a job that can't be done?
I put sand in my pockets
To kinda weigh me down

There's just one way that I need to be
I took what you said and I put it on its feet
If this is the day, just let it beat
Like the heart goes
