The Shape of Your Heart
© 1999 Jayme Kelly Curtis

Through my window I can see
A clearing through the trees
In the shape of a heart

From the opening in the sky
Rays of light direct my eyes
Leading straight to the heart

Put your ear to the salty shell
Gaze deep at the wishing well
It's hard to tell
What life will bring
To make you sing

When the detail of life calls
I hear your footsteps paint the halls
In the shape of a heart

You turn your thoughts away from me
Still our love will always be
Held safe in my heart

Put your ear to the salty shell
Gaze deep at the wishing well
Still we can't know
Where love will grow
And what will be

As the sunlight turns to dusk
And daylight narrows as it must
I catch a glimpse of the heart

In the fading patch of blue
I see that I am part of you
I feel the shape of your heart

Put your ear to the salty shell
Gaze deep at the wishing well
It's a fact
Opposites attract
And I found you
