lyrics version 1
Does anybody know what love is
I thought once or twice I'd found it
But it just up and disappeared before I had the chance to put my arms around it
I thought once or twice I'd found it
But it just up and disappeared before I had the chance to put my arms around it
lyrics version 2
Does anybody know what love is
I thought once or twice I'd found it
But it just up and disappeared before I had the chance to put my arms around it
I s' meant, spent so many years by myself
I'd see couples walking down the street
I heard people talk about lasting love but it just never happened to me
But then one day I met you, you broke the prison doors apart
You showed me love's true freedom
And laid your soul in the center of my heart
You're in the center of my heart
When I'm sad you help me see the light
When I'm confused we talk things through
How could anybody not see right away why I am so in love with you
I'm a walking contradiction
God's the keeper of the keys
You're the sweetest rose of Fehrion and that's all that matters to me
I never want to hurt you
I wanna bless you but I don't know where to start
I'm so in love with you baby
You're in the center of my heart
You're in the center of my heart
Ooh
You help me drive my car
You help me change the strings on my guitar
You pick up the pieces of a broken jar
And when the night is clear you point out the stars
Well throw me into the dungeon
Hold me over without bail
Sometimes I wanna give myself up before I make a mistake
No matter how hard I try I know I'm gonna fail
But you just laugh and say I worry too much
How do you know
But you just laugh and say I worry too much
That guilt is not what love's about
I feel forgiven by your slightest touch and your smile destroys my deepest doubt
Why do you love me so sweetly
How do you know me so well
Is it possible that in your quest for heaven
You've gone through a similar hell
Nothing can ever harm us, no one could tear us apart
Heidi what I'm trying to say is you're the center of my heart
You are the center of my heart
You're in the center of my heart
In the center of my heart
I thought once or twice I'd found it
But it just up and disappeared before I had the chance to put my arms around it
I s' meant, spent so many years by myself
I'd see couples walking down the street
I heard people talk about lasting love but it just never happened to me
But then one day I met you, you broke the prison doors apart
You showed me love's true freedom
And laid your soul in the center of my heart
You're in the center of my heart
When I'm sad you help me see the light
When I'm confused we talk things through
How could anybody not see right away why I am so in love with you
I'm a walking contradiction
God's the keeper of the keys
You're the sweetest rose of Fehrion and that's all that matters to me
I never want to hurt you
I wanna bless you but I don't know where to start
I'm so in love with you baby
You're in the center of my heart
You're in the center of my heart
Ooh
You help me drive my car
You help me change the strings on my guitar
You pick up the pieces of a broken jar
And when the night is clear you point out the stars
Well throw me into the dungeon
Hold me over without bail
Sometimes I wanna give myself up before I make a mistake
No matter how hard I try I know I'm gonna fail
But you just laugh and say I worry too much
How do you know
But you just laugh and say I worry too much
That guilt is not what love's about
I feel forgiven by your slightest touch and your smile destroys my deepest doubt
Why do you love me so sweetly
How do you know me so well
Is it possible that in your quest for heaven
You've gone through a similar hell
Nothing can ever harm us, no one could tear us apart
Heidi what I'm trying to say is you're the center of my heart
You are the center of my heart
You're in the center of my heart
In the center of my heart
lyrics version 3
Does anybody know what love is
I thought once or twice I'd found it
It just up and disappeared before I had the chance to put my arms around it
I'd see couples walking down the street
Holding hands and looking free
People talk about lasting love but it never happened to me
But then one day I met you, you broke my chains apart
You showed me love's true freedom
And laid your soul in the center of my heart
When I'm sad you help me see the light
When I'm confused I just talk to you
No matter what kind of trouble I'm in, you always seem to know what I should do
I'm a walking contradiction
You're the keeper of the key
You're the road that leads to Fehrion and that's all that matters to me
I only want to serve you, oh but where do I start
My love is just the reflection of your soul in the centre of my heart
I’ve travelled so far
I turned around, there you are
And when I feel like I'm lost in the dark
You lift me up and you show me the start
Throw me in to your prison of love
Hold me over without bail
I want to give myself up without a fight, I'm so afraid I'm gonna fail
You let me know that I worry too much, this is not what love's about
I feel forgiven by your sunsets, your rain washes away my doubts
Nothing can ever stop us, death won't tear us apart
All I'm really trying to say is you're the soul in the center of my heart
I thought once or twice I'd found it
It just up and disappeared before I had the chance to put my arms around it
I'd see couples walking down the street
Holding hands and looking free
People talk about lasting love but it never happened to me
But then one day I met you, you broke my chains apart
You showed me love's true freedom
And laid your soul in the center of my heart
When I'm sad you help me see the light
When I'm confused I just talk to you
No matter what kind of trouble I'm in, you always seem to know what I should do
I'm a walking contradiction
You're the keeper of the key
You're the road that leads to Fehrion and that's all that matters to me
I only want to serve you, oh but where do I start
My love is just the reflection of your soul in the centre of my heart
I’ve travelled so far
I turned around, there you are
And when I feel like I'm lost in the dark
You lift me up and you show me the start
Throw me in to your prison of love
Hold me over without bail
I want to give myself up without a fight, I'm so afraid I'm gonna fail
You let me know that I worry too much, this is not what love's about
I feel forgiven by your sunsets, your rain washes away my doubts
Nothing can ever stop us, death won't tear us apart
All I'm really trying to say is you're the soul in the center of my heart
lyrics version 4
