HERE IN MY HEART

HERE IN MY HEART

WRITTEN BY JEFF R HILTON

JANUARY 2019

THREE A.M. BEHIND THE WHEEL

I HAVE TO PULL OVER AND GET OUT

JUST TO SEE HOW I FEEL

I'VE BEEN DRIVING FOR AWHILE

THE FARTHER AWAY

THE CLOSER, EVERY MILE

HOW LONG IS TOO LONG

I'VE BEEN HOLDING OUT

DESIRE BURNING LIKE A FEVER

THAT JUST WON'T BREAK

HERE IN MY HEART

ITS ALL I CAN TAKE

ITS ONLY THE OPEN ROAD

 TO DELIVER ME

TO THE WILD SEA

ON A WINDSWEPT BEACH

JUST HERE AND I

FULL CIRCLE, FEELING FREE

ITS BEEN TOO LONG

SINCE I WAS GONE

ALL THE DAYS START

 TO LOOK THE SAME

FINALLY LEFT IT ALL BEHIND

IN MY REAR VIEW MIRROR

COULDN'T WAIT TO

HIT THE ROAD

THE WIND IN MY HAIR

RACING TO GET THERE

TO YOU

I CAN'T STOP

I'LL DRIVE RIGHT THROUGH

HERE IN MY HEART ITS REAL

THE CLOSER I GET

THE BETTER I FEEL

HIT THE OPEN ROAD 

TRAVELING LIGHT

I DON'T NEED A HEAVY LOAD 

TO HOLD ME BACK

FOUR WHEELS ROLLING THROUGH

THE MOUNTAINS, THROUGH THE CANYONS

LIKE A RUNAWAY TRAIN

UNTIL I GET THERE TO YOU

I KNOW I LOOK FORWARD TO

SEEING YOU IN SUMMER LIGHT

THE NIGHTS ARE SWEET AND LONG

LONG AFTER THE SUN GOES DOWN

MAKES ME WISH

I COULD OF GOT HERE SOONER

BUT I'M COMING NOW

I'LL BE THERE, BESIDE YOU

WATCHING THE WAVES ROLL IN

HERE IN MY HEART

ITS REAL
