Lyrics Big Country – Hold The Heart
Text:
The sun beats hard on an empty beach where I tried so hard
But couldn’t reach the stars in your eyes
You were just a child when I came to you and we were friends
‘Till love stepped in, and you stepped away
And visit places where we lay alone
And find them turned to stone
Because you hold the heart of someone new
I’ll take a chance on time
Hold out here for something true
Standing out of line
But I would wait a hundred years to hear you say my name
The way you did before he came, the way you will again
I fell apart and you came to me
I never can explain how much it turned me round
Much more than upside down
Because you hold the heart of someone new
I’ll take a chance on time
Hold out here for something true
Standing out of line
But I would wait a hundred years to hear you say my name
The way you did before he came, the way you will again
And I love the sun, and I need the rain
And I know the way that you left me was only to test me
And I was vain
And I will be strong
And I will be warm
And I will let no one come near me until you will hear me
Just once again
And time will wear a mountain down
And colored you wrong
Now I hold the heart of someone new
I’ll take a chance on time
Hold out here for something true
Standing out of line
But I would wait a hundred years to hear you say my name
The way you did before he came, the way you will again
But I would wait a hundred years to hear you say my name
The way you did before he came, the way you will again
