"Heart to Heart"--One of My Favorite Love Songs

A personal favorite love song sung by the late John Denver

John Denver

I haven’t seen all there is to see

But I have seen quite a bit

I’ve seen things I’ll always remember

Some things I wish that I could forget

I haven’t quite been around the world

But I’ve been around the block

I know that distances are meaningless

Like the hands that move around a clock

And I know that love is everywhere

Always safe, always true

And exactly where it comes from

Is where it is going to.

Your heart to mine, my heart to yours

Talk about opening windows, talk about opening doors

My heart is yours, your heart is mine

Love is a light that shines from heart to heart

Here I am sitting in old Hong Kong

The harbor and the lights

There like diamonds in the heaven

Enough to brighten the darkest of nights

There is another side to sorrow

As there is to everything

Like the other side of lonely

Is falling in love again.

And then you know that there’s an answer

To the suffering that we see

And though it isn’t easy

It is as simple as you and me

And you’ll know that love is everywhere

Always safe, always true

And exactly where it comes from

Is where it is going to

Your heart to mine, my heart to yours

Talk about opening windows, talk about opening doors

My heart is yours, your heart is mine

Love is a light that shines from heart to heart
