Straight From the Heart Songtext
von Deniece Williams

I was downhearted
Confused by too many lies
You were not like the others
That I soon realized
I was left walking around
In some kind of daze
But you opened your arms
And you loved all my hurt away

This is straight from the heart, baby
Right from the heart, darlin′
It's straight from the heart, baby
I′ll always be around


I used to hear voices
Whispering in my head
They said, "Don't you trust him
Don't give in
Don′t you be misled"
I was hungry for love
But past failures made me afraid
Yet when I′m in your arms
Every fear somehow fades away

This is straight from the heart, baby
Right from the heart, darlin'
It′s straight from the heart, baby
I'll always be around

Heartbreak taught me
Love can have two sides
Tears mixed with laughter
Is no surprise
And our hearts are intertwined
So I won′t let go
I just can't let go

This is straight from the heart, baby
Listen right there in my heart, darlin′
This is straight from the heart, baby
I'll always be around

This is straight from the heart, baby


You're everything I need, darlin′
This is straight from the heart, baby
I′ll never let you down
This is straight from the heart, darlin'
′Cause you mean the world to me
And try to make me forget
Straight from the heart, baby
I'll always be around

Straight from the heart, baby
Right from the heart, darlin′, baby boy
This is straight from the heart, baby
I'll always be around
