Song language: English
The Captive Heart |
| The old clock is ticking now |
| Marks the space between us Your memory enshrouds my heart |
| For I am held a captive |
| Sometimes my soul desires |
| To take leave of this old world |
| To spread these golden wings and fly |
| To the city of angels |
| But then if I close my eyes |
| I can see you standing there |
| Your face in permanence smiles |
| Your lips a chalice |
| Seems like I’ve loved you all my life |
| Never thought I’d find you |
| Some day the muse may lend these words wings |
| So I can touch you |
| But hey! |
| Don’t worry if the feelings not strong for you |
| I have lived my life in accordance |
| To the windfalls of passion |
| Though I know how it feels |
| To be loved and then forgotten |
| I have seen too many men |
| Driven insane by their distractions |
