Heartspoken

Story Behind The Song

Inspiration can appear at any time anywhere. A simple conversation about listening to one's heart produced the word "heart spoken" and led to this song. Having just written a song called "Heartbroken," it felt so good to turn the tide and, with a slight alteration of the word, resurrect the optimism that defines my approach to life.

Lyrics

V1: When my heart starts speaking to me
I let inhibitions go
Sometimes I don't want to do what it's telling me to
But I've learned not to say "No"
It's like poetry in motion
Like waves out on the ocean
Like a melody wrapped in harmony
It's heart spoken

V2: One thing I've come to notice
Is love doesn't always play fair
You think you've just about got it all figured out
When you find yourself coming up for air
Leaving the door open
Lets in all this raw emotion
There are no words left to be heard
It's heart spoken

Bridge: It's a "heart" thing
I'm not imagining it
It's a promise that can't be broken
You know from the start
When it comes from the heart
It's heart spoken

V3: I guess the point of this story
Is if you listen to your heart you can't go wrong
If I've learned anything it's that love is everything
It sings the most beautiful song
Like poetry in motion
Like waves out on the ocean
Like a melody wrapped in harmony
It's heart spoken

You know from the start
When it comes from the heart
It's heartspoken
