The Heart of the World lyrics

Tin cans on rattlin' pavement

Confetti scattered everywhere

She falls asleep in the seat beside me

Rice caught up in her hair

I don't mind it, I keep drivin',

Flying on these wheels of steel

A bit anxious, a bit nervous

The moment's all that we can feel

If oil is the soul of the engine

And wine is the drink of the Gods

Forgiveness the road to redemption

Faith can still beat the odds

We're meant to be baby hold on to me

You'll never not be my girl

'Cause love is the heart of the world

I leave him sleepin' as I rise early

Always up before the dawn

The house is dark, but I see clearly

Kettle sings a morning song

The bacon's frying, babies crying

I soak up the sights and sounds

Minutes turn to days and I wish that I could slow it down

If grease is the soul of the kitchen

And coffee the drink of the Gods

Routine too perfect to mention

Time is a thief I would rob

We're meant to be baby hold onto me

I'll never not be your girl

'Cause love is the heart of the world

Oh, and hope is soul of the dreamer

And heaven is the home of my God

It only takes one true believer

To believe you can still beat the odds

We're meant to be baby hold onto me

You'll never not be my girl (I'll never not be your girl)

'Cause love is the heart, love is the heart,

Love is the heart of the world
