Headley began playing the music of her native country at a young age, including calypso, reggae and soca. She moved to Fort Wayne, Indiana in the United States at the age of fifteen when her father was offered a job as pastor of McKee Street Church of God (in Anderson, Indiana).
After graduating from Northrop High School, Headley attended Northwestern University to study communications and musical theatre. In 1997, she played Nala in The Lion King, the Broadway musical. Headley's performance was well-received and she then originated the title role in the Broadway adaptation of Aida, earning the Tony Award for Best Actress in 1999.
Headley released her debut album, This Is Who I Am, in October 2002 on RCA Records. Although its first single, "He Is", was not very successful, the second single, "I Wish I Wasn't", achieved moderate success and earned her a Grammy Award nomination for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance. Headley was also nominated for Best New Artist.
On September 6, 2003, Headley married Brian Musso, formerly of the New York Jets. Her second album, In My Mind, was delayed due to the various executive shake-ups associated with RCA parent BMG's merger with Sony, and Headley joked that it should have been called Caught Up instead. Under BMG North America chairman/CEO Clive Davis for the first time, Headley released the album in January 2006. The title track was released as the first single; it was produced by India.Arie collaborator Shannon Sanders, and its music video was directed by Diane Martel. The song reached number-one on the U.S. Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart.
Love Will Find A Way
Heather Headley Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
One we've never known
We would never need to face the world alone
They can have their world we'll create our own
I may not be brave or strong or smart
But somewhere in my secret heart
I know love will find a way
If you are there beside me
Like dark turning into day
Somehow we'll come through
Now that I've found you
Love will find a way
I was so afraid
Now I realize love is never wrong
And so it never dies
There's a perfect world shining in your eyes
And if only they could feel it too
The happiness I feel with you
They'd know love will find a way
Anywhere we go we're home
If we are there together
Like dark turning into day
Somehow we'll come through
Now that I've found you
Love will find a way
I know love will find a way
Anywhere we go
I'm home (I'm home)
Right there
If we are there together
Like dark turning into day
Somehow we'll come through
Now that I've found you
Love will find way
I know love will find a way
I know love will find a way

In a perfect world
In an ideal world that we have not experienced
One we've never known
A world that we have never encountered
We would never need to face the world alone
We would not need to confront the world by ourselves
They can have their world we'll create our own
They can have their world, but we will form our own
I may not be brave or strong or smart
I might not possess courage, strength or intelligence
But somewhere in my secret heart
Yet, somewhere deep within me
I know love will find a way
I am certain that love will find a path
Anywhere I go I'm home
Anywhere I travel, I feel comfortable
If you are there beside me
As long as you are with me
Like dark turning into day
Like the transformation from night to day
Somehow we'll come through
We will find a way to overcome any obstacle
Now that I've found you
Since I have discovered you
Love will find a way
Love will always find a route
I was so afraid
I was filled with fear
Now I realize love is never wrong
Now I understand that love is never incorrect
And so it never dies
Thus, it never perishes
There's a perfect world shining in your eyes
Your eyes reveal a perfect world
And if only they could feel it too
And if only other people could perceive it similarly
The happiness I feel with you
The joy I experience with you
They'd know love will find a way
Then they would comprehend that love will always find a way
Anywhere we go we're home
As long as we are together, we are home
If we are there together
As long as we are united
Now that I've found you
Since I have discovered you
Love will find a way
Love will always find a path
I know love will find a way
I am sure that love will find a route
Anywhere we go
No matter where we go
I'm home (I'm home)
I am at home
Right there
That is where I belong
Now that I've found you
Since I have discovered you
Love will find way
Love will always find a path
I know love will find a way
I am confident that love will find a path
