The Heart Is a Muscle (MTV Unplugged Live In Melbourne)

Intro Break me off a piece of that And mix it in with a little wine With someone warm and smart, I guess With a heart in first and a soul behind Refrain And I won't give in 'Cause I wanna try again Verse 1 There will be no years of silence in the shadow of regret I won��t let it so betray me, though my soul got used to it I will look at love as more than just an instrument of pain And will give myself completely to the moving and the strange Refrain 'Cause I wanna overcome And try to love someone Verse 2 I will not spend the years depleted of my willingness to try It won��t hurt this way forever, it ain��t worth the overtime I��m not looking for redemption nor some shallow kind of bliss Lay me down and kiss me deeply, show me everything I missed Refrain I haven��t had enough And I wanna love someone Verse 3 I will not hurt like this forever, I��m responding to the call While there's speakers in the outfield Blasting out my favourite song I will not play this out discreetly, it is real and unashamed I am human now and terrified, but want it all the same Refrain 'Cause I wanna overcome And try to love someone Chorus 'Cause the heart, the heart, the heart The heart is a muscle And I wanna make it strong 'Cause the heart, the heart, the heart The heart is a muscle now I wanna make it strong Bridge I let bad love betray me once But I was barely outta high school then And I guess I fear the same results That none will take me as I am I wanna be loved, I wanna be whole again So tuck my hair behind my ears and touch my soul again The window is wide, the post unfulfilled And I just ask you to be patient if you'll have me still Refrain 'Cause I wanna open up And try to love someone 'Cause I wanna overcome And try to love someone Chorus The heart, the heart, the heart The heart is a muscle The heart, the heart, the heart The heart is a muscle now The heart, the heart, the heart The heart is a muscle now I wanna make it strong
