MIND AND HEART

There Are Two Things That Guide Us.

Through Our Lives Each Day.

Both Contribute To Who We Are

And Work To Guide Our Way.

Our Mind Is Constantly Analyzing

All The Things We Do.

It Records All We See

And Shapes Our Point Of View.

 Our Heart Brings Us Feelings

 Of Every Shape And Kind.

 And For Each Record Our Mind Has

 There Is A Feeling We Can Find.

Although They Work Hand In Hand

Each And Every Day.

There Are Times That One Says Go

And The Other Tells Us Stay.

In These Times Of Indecision

It's So Hard To Do What's Right.

Because The Two Things We Rely On

Just Seem To Want To Fight.

Your Heart Says Do What You Feel You Need,

Your Mind Says No That's Wrong.

Your Mind Says Do What Is Right,

But Your Heart Says The Hurt's Too Strong.

Your Mind Trys To Think Clearly

But It Is Drownding In Despair.

Your Heart Has So Many Questions,

But Your Mind Just Isn't There.

Usually Too Late They Find Out

That All These Things They Do.

Make Things So Much Worse

For The Place They Live In You.

              

They Try To Trick Each Other

To Try And Ease The Pain.

But Every Time They Do

It Always Seems In Vane.

I Don't Know All The Answers

And Sometimes I Feel Pain.

Sometimes I Don't Know What To Do

And Try Too Hard In Vain.

 I Hope The People That I Love

Will Try To Really See

That Some Of These Things I Do

Are From The Turmoil Inside Of Me.

 I Believe There Is A Remedy

To This Turmoil Deep Inside.

We Have To Turn And Face It

We Can Not Run And Hide.

We Have To Be The Very Best

We Know That We Can Be.

 We Have To Believe In Who We Are

If We Are Ever To Be Free.

So Inside I Am Going To Try

With Every Thing I Do

To Get Both My Mind And Heart

To Love And Understand Too.
