The Heart Wants What the Heart Wants By Julie K. Barnett

Verse 1 I tried to talk my heart into reason, Told it love should wait for a better season. But it beats to a rhythm I can’t control, A wild little fire deep in my soul. Pre-Chorus No map, no plan, no rules to obey— When love calls your name, you just can’t look away. Chorus The heart wants what the heart wants, No matter the risk, no matter the cost. It whispers in midnight, it shouts in the dawn, The heart wants what the heart wants. It’s the pull of a tide you can’t fight or fake, The kind of love only Heaven could make. The heart wants what the heart wants. Verse 2 I’ve counted the reasons to walk away, But your smile keeps asking my soul to stay. It’s a language older than words or time, A melody sweet, a sacred rhyme. Pre-Chorus No fear can stop what was meant to begin— When the heart opens wide, love rushes in. Chorus The heart wants what the heart wants, No matter the risk, no matter the cost. It whispers in midnight, it shouts in the dawn, The heart wants what the heart wants. It’s the pull of a tide you can’t fight or fake, The kind of love only Heaven could make. The heart wants what the heart wants. Bridge (Soft Build) Maybe it’s fate, maybe it’s chance, But I’m done pretending I don’t want the dance. So take my hand, let the world spin on— We’ll follow the beat our hearts sing upon. Final Chorus The heart wants what the heart wants, No matter the risk, no matter the cost. It whispers in midnight, it shouts in the dawn, The heart wants what the heart wants. It’s the pull of a tide you can’t fight or fake, The kind of love only Heaven could make. The heart wants what the heart wants. Outro (Acoustic Fade) So here we are, love wide and strong… The heart wants what the heart wants.
