Me And My Foolish Heart
My foolish heart keeps a vigil
standing ready, always searching
does he know what's best for me
or is he selfish, blind and needy
He sends a thrill throughout my body
at the slightest glance or imagined smile
If I didn't need him, I'd set him down
It's too hard to struggle through his mistakes
paying the cost for his recklessness
I have seen the damage firsthand
what an unchained heart can do
but he still stands watch
and he helps me
write it all down in my journal
sketch it all quickly with my pencil
take the pictures that I love to frame
empathize with my friends when they are hurting
and he does make me feel
like I am alive...
is the price worth it
in the end it's just me
me...
and my foolish heart
