Lyrics

Hearts Open Wide
©Schantell Wharton

(Verse 1)
Dim lights, smoky bar, another Saturday night
Caught your eye across the room, bathed in neon light
Heartbeat like a drum solo, couldn't help but stare
Whispered secrets to the bartender, a silent, hopeful prayer

(Pre-Chorus)
Maybe it's the whiskey, blurring all the lines
But something 'bout your smile, makes me wanna lose my mind

(Chorus)
Can a stolen glance turn into forever?
Tonight, we throw caution to the wind, whatever
Beneath the city's gleam, where strangers collide
Hearts open wide, secrets gently confide

(Verse 2)
Conversation flows like honey, secrets shared between sips
Turns out you're a dreamer too, with wishes on your lips
Laughter fills the empty spaces, walls we built start to fall
Maybe fate brought us together, a chance to catch us all

(Pre-Chorus)
The music slows, a slow dance invitation
Hesitation fades away, lost in the conversation

(Chorus)
Can a stolen glance turn into forever?
Tonight, we throw caution to the wind, whatever
Beneath the city's gleam, where strangers collide
Hearts open wide, secrets gently confide

(Bridge)
The night is young, the possibilities endless
Lost in the moment, worries feel defenseless
Is this real, or a dream disguised?
But in your arms, for now, I feel alive


(Chorus)
Can a stolen glance turn into forever?
Tonight, we throw caution to the wind, whatever
Beneath the city's gleam, where strangers collide
Hearts open wide, secrets gently confide

(Outro)
Maybe tonight, our story will unfold
Hearts open wide, under this city's soul
