It must have been him

Just a glimpse of a face in the crowd

That's all it takes

My heart is racing

I stand in a trance

As I stare at the back of a bus

Knowing there's no use denying

I can't stop thinking about us



The story of a heart

The story all of it mine

Then you took it from me

Every glorious line

I was safe and warm

And now I'm out in the cold

And I know I shouldn't have told my story

Story of a heart

I laid myself open wide

Yet to read the pages

Where the ink hadn't dried

All emotions pent up inside, my story



I try to resist

Bbut the images keep coming through

So many years

Still I'm defenceless



The house by the lake

His hands resting a while on the oars

Speaking with quiet conviction

Carefully unlocking doors



The story of a heart

The story all of it mine

Then you took it from me

Every glorious line

I was safe and warm

And now I'm out in the cold

And I know I shouldn't have told my story

Story of a heart

I laid myself open wide

Yet to read the pages

Where the ink hadn't dried

All emotions pent up inside, my story



Did he see me

Or did I just imagine it all

Putting a face on a stranger

A face I find more and more hard to recall



Never given up

I look for you everywhere

Time went by and sadness took the place of despair

In a way you'll stay with me â??til death do us part

Like a shadow deep in my heart forever



The story of a heart

I laid myself open wide

Yet to read the pages

Where the ink hadn't dried

Swept away and lost in love what was I to do

I just had to read it to you, my story.



The story of a heart

A story all of it mine

Then you took it from me

Every glorious line

I was safe and warm

And now I'm out in the cold

And I know I shouldn't have told my story



Story of a heart

I laid myself open wide

Yet to read the pages

Where the ink hadn't dried

All emotions pent up inside, my story
