I'll Be Here Where The Heart Is Lyrics

It's the song that just keeps playing on the radio
And you know I haven't seen you for a while
I lie awake at night
And I wonder how you are
And I wish that I could see you again

Is it luck or is it fate
That brings us back
Or is it just a common point of view
Time has put a spell on you
You never seem to change
And I wish that I could see you again

But I'll be here where the heart is
When the dreams that we've been after all come true
You will find me here where the heart is
I'll wait for you
I'll wait for you

It's the light that keeps shining day after day
When other loves have come and gone
I'll be here with open arms to take you in
And I wish that I could see you again

And in between
And when I need to see you again
All I have to do
Is close my eyes
Oh, the picture's coming in my friend
I'll hold you again
But who knows when

But I'll be here where the heart is
When the dreams that we've been after
All come true
You will find me here where the heart is
I'll wait for you
I'll wait for you

Cover art for I'll Be Here Where The Heart Is lyrics by Kim Carnes

This is such a beautifully sad song... She sings to an on-and-off lover she\'s in love with, but not only he doesn\'t know; he\'s in no position to acknowledge that. "You never seem to change" she sings bemoaning his playership. And all the while she, as much as him, take other partners. But, even in bed with anyone, she cannot forget him and that\'s why she says "And when I need to see you again, all I have to do is close my eyes. Oh the picture\'s coming in my friend."\nIt is really, really aching.
