Lyrics
MY HEART'S DESIRE
(Teri Wilder c. 2006)
SOMEONE TOLD ME THAT IT'S HARD TO FIND LOVE
GOT TO BE GOOD ENOUGH THEN MAYBE SOMEDAY, IF YOU'RE LUCKY
SOMEONE SHOWED ME THERE'S NO REASON TO TRY
WE CAN ONLY GET BY ALL THE HARD WORK IS FOR NOTHING
AND I SAY NO, NO, NO THAT'S NOT THE WAY IT GOES
I HAVE EVERYTHING I WANT AND NEED HERE INSIDE OF ME
CHORUS
I CAN FLY CAUSE I AM FREE BRING IT ON CAUSE I AM READY
COMING OUT OF THE HAZE I'VE TURNED INTO A BLAZE OF FIRE
I AM MY HEART'S DESIRE
WHEN YOU'RE GRIPPING IT'S TIME TO BE STILL
LET GO OF YOUR WILL AND YOUR WHO AND WHY AND WHEN
IF YOU'RE SLIPPING REMEMBER YOUR GUIDE
MAKE PEACE WITH THE RIDE AND WHEN FEAR COMES ROUND AGAIN
YOU CAN SAY NO, NO, NO THAT'S NOT THE WAY IT GOES
I HAVE EVERYTHING I WANT AND NEED HERE INSIDE OF ME
CHORUS
I CAN FLY CAUSE I AM FREE BRING IT ON CAUSE I AM READY
COMING OUT OF THE HAZE I'VE TURNED INTO A BLAZE OF FIRE
I AM MY HEART'S DESIRE
BRIDGE
AND I CAN SAY WITHOUT QUESTION WHEN I WANT LOVE'S ATTENTION
IT'S THERE AT MY SUGGESTION I BELIEVE... I KNOW... AND I SAY
CHORUS
I CAN FLY CAUSE I AM FREE BRING IT ON CAUSE I AM READY
COMING OUT OF THE HAZE I'VE TURNED INTO A BLAZE OF FIRE
I AM MY HEART'S DESIRE I AM MY HEART'S DESIRE
