Lyrics

The Heart Is Still King
Lyrics and Music by Woody Russell / ©℗ 2015, Woody Russell, Cats Up The Street Music, ASCAP

We’re too late, the ferry left the harbor
Guess we’re stuck here for now
We’ll get to know each other better
I don’t mind that, anyhow
You smile, we stare across the water
Small talk on our tongues
Then you lay a sweet kiss on me
I know I’m the lucky one
In this world gone mad
You ask, “Is the heart is still king?”
Though logic fails me
My heart is answering

It shouts, “Yes, yes, the heart is still king!”
It shouts, “Yes, yes, the heart is still king!”

You hold me, hold me close to you
As we stroll beside the bay
We’re waiting on the next boat to
Ferry us both to the end of this day

“Yes, yes, the heart is still king!”
It shouts, “Yes, yes, the heart is still king!”

I don’t want this day to end
And it seems, neither do you
Rain comes just as the ferry lands
We pass on that one and the next one too
repeat chorus

Don’t doubt it
The heart is still king
