Home Is Where The Heart Is
Connie and Babe Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When ever we kiss,
I worry and wonder.
Your lips may be near,
but where is your heart?

It's always like this,
I worry and wonder.
You're close to me here,
but where is your heart?

It's a sad thing to realize
that you've a heart that never melts.
When we kiss, do you close your eyes,
pretending that I'm someone else?

You must break the spell,
this cloud that I'm under.




So please won't you tell, darling,
where is your heart?

When ever we kiss,
Every time we kiss


I worry and wonder.
I feel uneasy and doubt


Your lips may be near,
Your mouth is close to mine


but where is your heart?
But your emotions are elsewhere


It's always like this,
It's a recurring feeling


I worry and wonder.
I'm full of anxiety and uncertainty


You're close to me here,
You're physically near me


but where is your heart?
But your heart is not with me


It's a sad thing to realize
It's a sorrowful thought to understand


that you've a heart that never melts.
That implies you have an unfeeling heart


When we kiss, do you close your eyes,
During our kisses, do you shut your eyes


pretending that I'm someone else?
Imagining I'm someone other than myself?


You must break the spell,
You need to break the enchantment


this cloud that I'm under.
This sadness that I'm going through


So please won't you tell, darling,
Can you please tell me, my love


where is your heart?
Where do your emotions lie?
