the heart is the hunter

bertie higgins

come to me now

won't you rest your life for a while?

girl

this is not your style

maybe it's not your way

the tears behind your smile

your trembling mouth

so fragile

with the fears of a frightened child

you've tangled up your day

the heart is the hunter

the heart is the dove

and as it lets the arrow fly

it wounds itself in love

the heart is the hunter

and it will capture the light again

then it's gonna learn to let it out

learn to let it in

you flew toward the sun

touching down on everyone

you tried them on just for fun

you dared yourself to fool

you can hide your eyes right here

i see the bruises and i see the fear

let it go

don't hide the tears

'cause i'm gonna love you most of all

the heart is the hunter

the heart is the dove

and as it lets the arrow fly

it wounds itself in love

the heart is the hunter

and it will capture the light again

then it's gonna learn to let it out

learn to let it in
