In My Heart

John Denver · Portrait [1999]

I don't know why

We still live together;

We're so far apart

so much of the time.

I don't know why

This beautiful weather

is breaking my spirit

And tearing my mind

all apart.



Are you so lonely?

Are you so sad?

Have you lost your purpose,

The faith that you had?

If life is a question

I don't understand,

If time is the reason

Then nobody can,



In my heart

It is just an illusion,

It's not even real

It's much more than you think

It's much more than you feel.



My ears are still ringing

There's nothing to say.

Why look to the ocean

To wash me away?

There goes my best friend,

There goes my last dime;

If love is the answer

I'm wasting my time.



In my heart

It is just an illusion,

It's not even real

It's much more than you think

It's much more than you feel.

Do you feel? Is this real?

How I feel, In my heart,

In my heart, In my heart
