paroles de chanson Hand On Heart - Live in London, 1990 - Queensrÿche

All eyes were staring
You floated through the room
Armed with your razor smile
Cutting to the bone

My voice fell useless
You flashed a quick "Hello"
Feeling the fool
Could you tell it showed?

But that was sometime ago
A memory vague and fading slow
Of somewhere I'd been

Hand on heart
A promise, a word and a voice
Hand on heart
A rhythm of hope and choice, will keep us together

I don't know if I can reach that high
It's a long way to fall

Hauntingly holding
My fate with a gaze
Like a child, mesmerized
By the candle's flame

Oh, what lies behind those eyes
I could only guess
That certain way you stood apart
From all the rest

Now where is "Sometime Ago?"
When everything moved in slo-motion
Caught by my watering eye

Hand on heart
A promise, a word and a voice
Hand on heart
A rhythm of hope and a vision of choice

Hand on heart
Promising I'll never go
Hand on heart
For reasons you'll never know

Together through thick and thin
Lose or win, I'll be there for you

Strange how the mind changes
Time and time again
Things once important
Now pale in comparison

Hand on heart
A promise, a word and a voice
Hand on heart
A rhythm of hope and a vision of choice

Hand on heart
Promising, I'll never go
Hand on heart
For reasons you'll never know

I promise, hand on heart
Hand on heart
Hand on heart
Hand on heart
