My Heart
Frieda & Jakob Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I frittered all my days away in silence and in vain
Seven years ago, a wonder in the making for these days
We would gaze up to the rain and all the mighty clouds above
That was way back then, and now it's overcrowded
And sometimes I think back to where we were
'Cause that is where my heart is
That is where I've left it all
Frozen tears on a payroll
Left in the middle of a raging storm
That is where my soul is
And my soul has seen it all
Can't settle down in the new world
Can't be the middle of a pagan storm
The thought of finding roads to every angle of the earth
All the memories die, except the ones we know for what they're worth
Well we could have been a wondrous set of stars
And the answers always lie, while the questions never die so
Can we please go back to where we were? 'Cause
That is where my heart is
That is where I've left it all
Frozen tears and a payroll
Left in the middle of a raging storm
That is where my soul is
And my soul has seen it all
Can't settle down in the new world
Can't be the middle of a pagan storm
And we'll blow away like the eastern wind
Give me the darkness of the world , make it brighter
That is where my heart is
That is where I've left it all
Frozen tears on a payroll
Left in the middle of a raging storm
That is where my soul is
And my soul has seen it all
Can't settle down in the new world
Can't be the middle of a pagan storm
That is where my heart is
That is where I've left it all




That is where my soul is
And my soul has seen it all

The song then moves to the chorus where the singer declares that their heart and soul are still in the place where they have left them.
