Only in My Heart

[Intro] [Instrumental: soft, elegant acoustic piano chord progression] [Verse 1] The city sleeps beneath the silver rain I hear the echo of your name again The candle flickers on the kitchen floor Like every shadow walking through the door I try to tell myself that I am free But memories are holding on to me [Chorus] Only in my heart, the flame is burning bright Only in my heart, you're with me through the night Even though the world has pulled our lives apart You will always stay, only in my heart [Verse 2] I play the keys and watch the music flow A gentle melody from long ago They ask me how I carry on each day I smile and tell them I am doing okay But behind the words I whisper to the air The truth is that I see you everywhere [Chorus] Only in my heart, the flame is burning bright Only in my heart, you're with me through the night Even though the world has pulled our lives apart You will always stay, only in my heart [Bridge] [Instrumental: mellow, expressive jazz piano solo] No heavy drums, no shouting in the dark Just the quiet warmth of a fading spark I do not need to cry or make a sound As long as this sweet memory is found [Chorus] Only in my heart, the flame is burning bright Only in my heart, you're with me through the night Even though the world has pulled our lives apart You will always stay, only in my heart [Outro] Yes, you stay... Only in my heart. [Instrumental: piano fades out slowly on a warm major chord]
