In a Heart Like Mine

Randy Travis · A Man Ain't Made of Stone [1999]

In a heart like mine with a steady beat

Just the right rhythm makes it feel complete

And the rhythm's right with you and I

And love starts pounding in a heart like mine



Put a chord or two with the melody

Bring in a little chill bump harmony

Then let it build 'til the feeling's right

And love starts playing in a heart like mine



In a heart like mine in a love like this

There's a symphony in a single kiss

Bring on the fiddles and the violins

And listen to the way they shine

I could love on the music 'til the end of time

With a love like yours and heart like mine



In a heart like mine there is poetry

In truth, emotion and honesty

So when the soul is there

And the words all rhyme

Love starts singing in a heart like mine



In a heart like mine in a love like this

There's a symphony in a single kiss

Bring on the fiddles and the violins

And listen to the way they shine

I could live on the music 'til the end of time

With a love like yours and heart like mine



--- Instrumental ---



In a heart like mine in a love like this

There's a symphony in a single kiss

Bring on the fiddles and the violins

And listen to the way they shine

I could live on the music 'til the end of time

With a love like yours and heart like mine



I could live on the music 'til the end of time

With a love like yours and heart like mine...
