Hearts Collide Lyrics

Love conquers everytime
Where do hearts go to collide?
You're the card in my valentine
And the candy hearts in my mind

And true love is the rule
And you're nobody's fool

The shapes come into the light
And it was love at first sight
Baby, baby, you're the light
And the flame burns in my mind's eye

The triumph bleeds into bliss
And I knew it from the first kiss
Tonight, hearts collide
Hearts collide, hearts collide

The triumph bleeds into bliss
And I knew it from the first kiss
Tonight, hearts collide
Hearts collide, hearts collide
Tonight, hearts collide
Hearts collide, hearts collide
Tonight, hearts collide
Hearts collide, hearts collide

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Corrections: "Where so hearts go to collide?" should be "when two hearts come to collide," and, "The shapes come into the light" should be "The ship's coming to the light." These lyrics hadn't been confirmed when I submitted them, this is just what I heard.. As for the meaning, I think it's pretty straightforward. This is a classic, optimistic love song from one person to another, and I quite like it. :]
