Close to My Heart

A romantic Valentine's Day tribute to a loving partner

[Verse 1] I used to walk these streets alone With just a shadow of my own A heart locked up, a quiet space Until I saw your smiling face The winter cold began to fade With every memory we made Now February feels like spring Because of all the joy you bring [Chorus] You are the beat inside my chest The calm whenever I need rest My Valentine, my steady hand The best thing in this crazy land I don’t need diamonds, gold, or art I just need you close to my heart Yeah, just you close to my heart [Verse 2] We’ve had our storms, we’ve had our rain But sunshine always heals the pain You know the words I cannot say You light the dark and lead the way So let the world spin fast and loud I found my peace inside this crowd It’s you and me, that’s all I know A love that continues to grow [Chorus] You are the beat inside my chest The calm whenever I need rest My Valentine, my steady hand The best thing in this crazy land I don’t need diamonds, gold, or art I just need you close to my heart Yeah, just you close to my heart [Bridge] Every day is the fourteenth When you are standing next to me No calendar can hold this love It fits like a perfect glove Yeah, it fits like a perfect glove [Chorus] You are the beat inside my chest The calm whenever I need rest My Valentine, my steady hand The best thing in this crazy land I don’t need diamonds, gold, or art I just need you close to my heart Yeah, just you close to my heart [Outro] My Valentine Just you and me Forever mine (Fade out)
