lyrics

The sun’s as bright as fire, and proud
The moon is quiet, a paler form
Its light a spray of stars in thousands
My heart is like them, both of these
The sky turns blue, it’s pure and clear
The cloud becomes a thunderstorm
One moment, then a dew of tears
My heart is like them, both of these
My heart, my heart
My heart is like both of these
My heart, my heart
My heart is like both of these
The nightingale that starts to sing
The rose that’s full of blooms and thorns
The winter followed by the spring
My heart is like them, all of these
There’s one thing on earth that it can’t be
Although I have longed for it all of my life
Peace and quiet are far off for me
‘Cause it’s never the same twice
My heart, my heart
My heart is never the same twice
My heart, my heart
My heart is never the same twice
