[Chorus: Shaka Loveless]
Out in the dark somewhere a heart starts to beat
Little heart, I know very well you don't understand
I am not at all brave enough to care for you
Little heart, why did you chose me?
[Verse 1: Ankerstjerne
He slammed the door shut behind him
Said he needed air
A broken moment
Mend to be big and beautiful
But panic got the best of him and he split
Heard her cry in the stairway behind him
But he didn't care
Out into the street, into the car
He just had to get out of there
He thought: "I hate myself,
Cause I know she loves me"
But I am not ready, damn it
I'm almost just a kid myself
Damn it if I can be a father of any child, right?
His heart is beating
It's chaos in his mind
Who said he could possibly be
Anything at all for anyone
Who said they would be forever
Said that he'd be done
With life in freedom, nights out
All of that, please
What would he be able to teach a child,
What would he be able to give
Baby food and diapers, shit
Not on his economy
It's not because
He wants to run from any responsibility
But doesn't she know he has
The same genes as his father
And he would just fuck it all up
Even during the good times
He would just be another
Of those fathers that splits
And he refuses to
Maybe it's playing God
But he can't see any other way out
It will end up in tears
[Chorus: Shaka Loveless]
Out in the dark somewhere a heart starts to beat
Little heart, I know very well you don't understand
I am not at all brave enough to care for you
Little heart, why did you chose me?
[Verse 2: Ankerstjerne]
He always told her
She was too good for him
She used to say she knows
But that she believes in him
And she has seen the worst of him
Then how could he leave
When he know it's now
She needs him the most
He's ashamed
His demons are playing with the choice
Of crashing through the railing of Langebro
Into the water
But he stops and suddenly feels
Something he never felt before
Realising there's nothing in the world
He wouldn't do if it's for her
Only she sees that the light he carries in the dark
Might e the reason why he is as cold as he is
Not at all that he doesn't have anything to give after all
Maybe he just needed someone
That he could give it to
And maybe all the things
That were so fucked up in his childhood
Was just so that he knew
Exactly what to change
Maybe the little heart here needs him so much
That it could close up the hole in his
Before it ends up in tears
[Chorus: Shaka Loveless]
Out in the dark somewhere a heart starts to beat
Little heart, I know very well you don't understand
I am not at all brave enough to care for you
Little heart, why did you chose me?
[Bridge: Shaka Loveless & Ankerstjerne]
Little heart, little heart
I don't know how, but for you I could learn
Little heart, little heart
No matter what you need I will be
Little heart, little heart
I don't know how, but for you I could learn
Little heart, little heart
No matter what you need I will be
And if you think I can, then I will carry it
[Chorus: Shaka Loveless]
Out in the dark somewhere a heart starts to beat
Little heart, I know very well you don't understand
I am not at all brave enough to care for you
But little heart, thank you for choosing me
[Outro: Shaka Loveless
Little heart, little heart
Little heart, little heart
(Little heart)
Little heart, little heart
Little heart, little heart
