Heartlines (Acoustic Version)

Oh the river, oh the river, it's running free
And oh the joy, oh the joy it brings to me
But I know it'll have to drown me
Before I can breathe easy
And I've seen it in the flights of birds
I've seen it in you
The entrails of the animals
The blood running through
But in order to get to the heart
I think sometimes you'll have to cut through
But you can't.

We will carry
We will carry you there.

Just keep following!
The heartlines on your hand!
Just keep following!
The heartlines on your hand!
Keep it up!
I know you can!
Just keep following!
The heartlines on your hand!
Cause I am.

On the sea, on the sea and land over land
Creeping and crawling like the sea over sand
Still I follow heartlines on your hand
And there's fantasy, there's fallacy, there's tumbling stone
Echoes of a city that's long overgrown
Your heart is the only place that I call home
I cannot be returned
You can…
You can…
I know you can.

Just keep following!
The heartlines on your hand!
Just keep following!
The heartlines on your hand!
Keep it up!
I know you can!
Just keep following!
The heartlines on your hand!

What a thing to do…
Oooh
What a thing to choose…
But know, in some way I'm there with you
Up against the wall on a Wednesday afternoon.

Just keep following!
The heartlines on your hand!
Just keep following!
The heartlines on your hand!
Keep it up!
I know you can!
Just keep following!
The heartlines on your hand!
Cause I am.
