Follow your heart and see where it leads 
It will satisfy your wants and needs 
Thought rattles your brain and scrambles your mind, 
You feel like you're running way behind.

Your temperature rises, Your face turns red,
You toss and turn all night in bed. 
You always long for that magic touch 
You don't want to, but you like it so much. 

Just listen to your heart - it's near to you 
It will calm you and lead you true 
Whether the outcome is good or bad, 
Follow your heart it will make you glad. 

Your brain says control, don't get so close 
But your heart betrays you, it wants so much 
Everything is twisted and so unclear 
You want distance but you have to be near. 

You are surrounded by love - but always alone 
Search your heart for that magical tone
Your brain can lead you and guide your life 
But it can also lead to loneliness and strife. 

Just listen to your heart - it's near to you 
It will calm you and lead you true 
Whether the outcome is good or bad, 
Follow your heart it will make you glad.

You can think all your life - search and seek 
Your heart feelings are true - take a peek 
Friendship or love - closeness or space 
Follow your heart and you've won the race.
