Part Of My Heart
Jim Brickman Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I thought I was near the end,
Then you came along,
When I needed a friend.
And you made me love again,
Somehow you found me,
Wrapped your love around me.
Now my heads up in the clouds, when I'm around you.
I just want to say, everyday, thank god I found you.
I will move heaven and earth, give you my heart,
For all that it's worth.
You are mine til the end of time.
I don't care what we've both been through.
Till the end my heart belongs to you.
You are my heart.
You are my everything.
The moon and the stars and the air that I breath.
And you gave me strength again.
Somehow you found me,
Wrapped your love around me.
Now my heads up in the clouds, when I'm around you.
I just want to say, everyday, thank god I found you.
I will move heaven and earth,
Give you my heart, for all that it's worth.
You are mine til the end of time.
I don't care what we're going through,
Till the end my heart belongs to you.
You know why, I'm love shy.
I don't want to hurt anymore.
I've been hurt before.
And I know I am saving my love for you.
I'm gonna keep you safe and warm.
I do love you.
Now my heads up in the clouds, when I'm around you.
I just want to say, everyday, thank god I found you.
I will move heaven and earth, give you my heart,
For all that it's worth.
You are mine til the end of time.
I don't care what we're going through.
Till the end my heart belongs to you.
