Only the Heart May Know

Silent sea, tell this to me
Where are the children that we used to be?

(Silent sea)

At picture shows
where nobody goes
and only the heart can see

Starry skies, soft lullabies
Where do they go
when their melody dies?

(Starry skies)

To a day,
far, far away,
that only the heart may know

Friends we knew follow us through
all of the days of our lives
Love we shared waits for us there
where our wishes forever reside

Falling tears, memories' mirrors
Where are the summers, oh,
where are the years?

(Falling tears)

Carried far
to a wandering star
that only the heart may know

Friends we knew follow us through
all of the days of our lives
Love we shared waits for us there
where our wishes forever reside

Starry skies, soft lullabies
Where do they go when their melody dies?
To a day, far, far away,
that only the heart may know

That only the heart may know

Dan Fogelberg - Emmylou Harris
