Your Heart

from A Wolf at the Door by Roy Peak

/

about

A song inspired by a line from Moby-Dick by Herman Melville: “Were I the wind, I'd blow no more on such a wicked, miserable world."

Produced, engineered, mixed, and mastered by Roy Peak at Radical Recording, Jacksonville, Florida.

lyrics

Your Heart

The moon is low
Filtered through the trees
The moon it watches
Shines on all it sees

And if I were that moon I would shine no more
Upon a wicked heart such as yours no more

Time walks by
Time, it does not care
Time keeps piling up
Just like this black despair

And if I were Father Time I would count no more
On such a scheming heart as yours no more

A heart keeps time
It can light your way
A heart can comfort
It can be your saving grace

A heart can beat softly
A heart can beat wild
Some hearts beat lonely
Some linger for a while

But if I were your heart I would beat no more
If I were your heart I would beat no more...
