Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
"Heart of my heart" brings back a memory
When we were kids on the corner of the street
We were rough and ready guys
But oh, how we could harmonize
"Heart of my heart" meant friends were dearer then
Too bad we had to part
To that gang that sang "Heart of my heart"
C'mon now, let's everybody sing!
"Heart of my heart", I love that melody
"Heart of my heart" brings back a memory
When we were kids on the corner of the street
We were rough and ready guys
But oh, how we could harmonize
"Heart of my heart" meant friends were dearer then (do-do-do-do-do)
Too bad we had to part (to part, to part, to part)
I know a tear would glisten if once more I could listen
To that gang that sang "Heart of my heart" (of my heart)
To that gang that sang "Heart of my heart" (of my heart!)
