Killers - Heart Of A Girl lyrics

rate me

Looking out my window an angel in robe appeared and nearly pulled me apart

A million miles of freedom

A million miles of road

She wrote her number down

She gave it to me

They had to scrape me off the floor

In this transient town

Waiters and dealers trying to get their foot in the door

That night I called her, she said

Daddy, daddy, daddy, all my life

I've been trying to find my place in the world

(I said to her)

Baby, baby, babe I got all night

To listen to the heart of a girl

I can see the time dripping down the clock

We've been trying to hear that ancient refrain

It's the one that knows us when our heads are down

It reminds us of the place from where we came

Where we came

Daddy, daddy, daddy, all my life

I've been trying to find my place in this world

Baby, baby, babe I got all night

To listen to the heart of a girl

What happened here? What is this world?

It's too far from the heart of a girl

Ripping the heart from the drop of a pearl

I'm on the shore waiting for the heart of a girl

Many doors

Knock on one

Standing still, time is raging

Staring down the mouth of 100, 000 guns

You're still here, you're still here

I believe that we never have to be alone

Yes I believe it's just around the bend

You can hold it in, or you can scream it on the microphone

There is no end

There is no end

Deep in the night, I feel a presence

Of something that was long ago, told to me

There is a hand guiding the river

The river to wide open sea

And deep in my heart, ?

On any mountain, no I'm not afraid

Standing on stone, you stand beside me

And honor the friends that were made
