Listen With Your Heart on YouTube
I reocrded this tonight from scratch for my contribution to WeAreEarth, although it is an old song. Isn't it about time we used our hearts more than our heads, perhaps?
Speaking of heads, I need a haircut lol

[edit] Lyrics
There once was a man
Who walked upon a road
Committed to a plan he bore a heavy load
He stopped to rest a while
And heard a bird's song
And with a whistful smile
Realised where he's gone wrong
Adam and Eve in Eden
Were innocent and true
Their hearts were the reason
For all the things they'd do
But when temptation took them
Out of paradise
Intelligence without wisdom
Came at a high price
So listen with your heart
Don't listen with your head
Don't tear my words apart
Feel for them instead
You know right from the start
Life dangles by a thread
So listen with your heart
Don't listen with your head
A scientist once planned
To remake the world anew
His project was to stand
As witness to a fool
For truth is only what
We feel to be true
When you strip away the plot
All that's left is you
So listen with your heart....
Now the world is consumed
With a raging greed
It has always been assumed
That progress is a need
But what progress can there be
Should it all come to naught
Oh what fools are we
Lessons to be taught
So listen with your heart...
Now to be clear
Our minds are useful tools
If we can but steer
Or hearts to set the rules
Listen, and healing starts
No tearing words to shreds
If we listen with our hearts
Not listen with our heads
If we listen with our hearts
Not listen with our heads
If we listen with our hearts
Not listen with our heads
