In My Heart
Barbara & The Browns Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
From some small town I never knew
It told me you were on your way
But not where you were going to
You said you're following the sun
But do you really know for sure?
For after all is said and done
There's a place in my heart
I wish that your eyes could see
And there's no one on earth
Who loves you as much as me
If you just travel on and on
Till I don't know where
There's a place in my heart
You may never find again
And so you travel with the wind
You'll find some road to fly along
And though your letters say the words
Your heart will soon forget the song
Then you may someday write a book
That tells your life in words of fire
And you may never, ever follow
Or find a love that you desire
There's a place in my heart
I wish that your eyes could see
And there's no one on earth
Who loves you as much as me
If you just travel on and on
Till I don't know where
There's a place in my heart
You may never find again
There's a place in my heart
I wish that your eyes could see
And there's no one on earth
Who loves you as much as me
If you just travel on and on
Till I don't know where
There's a place in my heart
You may never find again
The song "In My Heart" by Barbara & The Browns is a poignant message of love and hope to the person the singer is addressing. The song tells the story of someone who has left town and is traveling to unknown destinations. The singer has received a letter from this person, detailing their travels and their plans. The singer longs for this person to see the love in their heart that they have for them. The lyrics emphasize the importance of love and the idea that it is the only thing that will truly endure in life.
The chorus of the song is particularly moving as it chronicles the deep love the singer feels for the person who has left. They sing, "There's a place in my heart/ I wish that your eyes could see/ And there's no one on earth/ Who loves you as much as me/ If you just travel on and on/ Till I don't know where/ There's a place in my heart/ You may never find again." This reinforces the idea that the traveler may lose their way and never be able to find their way back to the love they once had.

I fetched your letter yesterday
Yesterday, I retrieved the letter that you sent me.
From some small town I never knew
This letter came from a small town that I'm not familiar with.
It told me you were on your way
Your letter informed me that you are traveling somewhere.
But not where you were going to
You did not mention your destination in the letter.
You said you're following the sun
You wrote about chasing the sunlight on your travels.
But do you really know for sure?
Are you certain that you know where you are headed?
For after all is said and done
Once your journey is complete,
Just what it is you're looking for
Do you really know what you want to find?
There's a place in my heart
I have a special feeling for you deep in my heart.
I wish that your eyes could see
I want you to experience this feeling too.
And there's no one on earth
No one else in this world
Who loves you as much as me
Loves you as much as I do.
If you just travel on and on
If you keep wandering and wandering
Till I don't know where
Until I lose track of where you are
You may never find again
You may never be able to experience this feeling again.
And so you travel with the wind
You continue to travel aimlessly
You'll find some road to fly along
You will eventually find a path to take
And though your letters say the words
Though your letters are full of words
Your heart will soon forget the song
You will forget the feelings behind those words soon enough.
Then you may someday write a book
Perhaps one day, you will write a book
That tells your life in words of fire
That describes your life with strong passion.
And you may never, ever follow
You may never, ever find
Or find a love that you desire
A love that you truly want.
There's a place in my heart
I hold a special love for you deep in my heart.
I wish that your eyes could see
I want you to feel the love I have for you.
And there's no one on earth
No one else in this world
Who loves you as much as me
Who loves you with the same intensity as I do.
If you just travel on and on
If you continue to wander aimlessly
Till I don't know where
Until I lose track of your whereabouts.
You may never find again
You may never feel this love again.
