Post 899: Slave to the Heart (5/16/00)

      SLAVE TO THE HEART (05/16/00)

WAITING FOR TOMORROW

FOR THE PAIN AND THE FEAR TO DISAPPEAR 

FOR THE FIRST DAY OF MY LIFE

FOR SOMETHING TO MAKE IT FEEL RIGHT, 

BUT ALL I HAVE IS TONIGHT

YOU’RE STANDING HERE TALKING TO ME

BUT SOMETHING IN YOUR EYES WON’T LET ME FREE

THERE’S SOMETHING IN YOUR SMILE THAT CALLS TO ME

(I DON’T WANT TO FALL, 

I DON’T WANT TO GIVE IN, 

I DON’T WANT TO LOVE YOU

BUT I JUST CAN’T WIN

I’M A SLAVE TO THE HEART, 

IT’S TAKEN CONTROL, 

A SLAVE TO THE HEART

AND IT’S TELLING ME NEVER LET GO, NEVER LET GO)

ALTHOUGH WE JUST MET AND I DON’T REALLY KNOW YOU

SOMEHOW, I KNOW YOU’RE THE ONE

I KNOW THIS SOUNDS LIKE TOO MUCH TOO FAST BUT I KNOW THIS WILL LAST

I’M POWERLESS TO CONTROL THE WAY I FEEL

(CHORUS)

SORRY IF I SCARE YOU 

BUT I CAN’T LEAVE YOU, 

ALL I WANT TO DO IS HOLD YOU

HOLD YOU FOREVER

DON’T ASK ME HOW, 

BUT I KNOW WE SHOULD BE TOGETHER FOR AN ETERNITY

I HAVE TO MAKE YOU SEE, I HAVE TO MAKE YOU BELIEVE

(CHORUS)
