My Heart Knows - Arden Coley
Doctors talk in numbers
Charts and lines
But my chest speaks in different signs
I try to be logic
To measure the cost
To keep my feet steady
On bridges we crossed
Then you walked in laughing
The whole room changed key
And something in me said
She's home to me
My heart knows what my mouth can't explain
It knows your calm like it knows the rain
My heart knows even when I doubt
It hears your name
And the lights go out
I've been wrong before
I've broken my own trust
But when you say my name
I believe in us
Like a compass
That points through smoke and through snow
I don't need a map when my heart knows
My heart knows what my mouth can't explain
It knows your calm like it knows the rain
My heart knows even when I doubt
It hears your name
And the lights go out
I watched you forgive me
In slow careful ways
The grand declarations
Just merge the full days
You stitched up my fear
With a soft patient touch
And taught me that love
Has a place to be fed
My heart knows what my mouth can't explain
It knows your calm like it knows the rain
My heart knows even when I doubt
It hears your name
And the lights go out
If the world asks for proof
I'll just let it be
My heart knows you're the truth
Living in me
