hearts gate
stephen stills
people find love the way they do
ain't the same for any two
if you think you get to choose
it takes paying attention to divine intervention
trust the decision your heart makes
in the tropical moonlight where the air feels like velvet
only someone to share it was missing
my heart was feeling bolder
would she turn a deaf shoulder
my mind getting older by the minute
it was hard to sit & wait
is to fear was it too late for the risking
now we've had a few years
we're working out our fears
lots of laughter & tears & growing
we left room to be ourselves
got the hand we'd been dealt
and there's nobody else need know it
people find love the way they do
ain't the same for any two
we don't choose at the heart's gate
if you're paying attention to divine intervention
comes a glorious ascension you both make
