My Whole Heart- English Miller
Words begun on Aug 13, 2012 and completed on Aug 25, 2012
(Verse 1)
I left a piece of my heart (pause) up in Washington.
I left a piece of my heart (pause) up in Washington.
And where I
grew up (pause) across the ocean.
I left some all along I-10 From Houston to New
Orleans
And I long
to have it back together again.
(Verse 2)
Some has ended
up in Boston, and got moved to Virginia
And some has
left and traveled east to the Atlantic Coast in Florida
I gave some
away in Wyoming and the Panhandle of Texas.
And though I’ve
never been there some has made it to Arizona
(Chorus)
And how is
it that I can leave my heart
In so many
places(second time “people”)?
How can I
divide it up that small?
How can each
piece feel that much longing?
Unless it
can all be back together how can I feel whole again?
(Verse 3)
When I leave
my family (pause) after a great visit
I think to
myself (pause) that nothing could be as hard as this.
But when my
dear friend comes (pause) from far away
I can’t let
go and my heart longs for here to stay.
(chorus)
(Bridge)
How can I
let go? How can this be right?
I long to be
among those I love most at the same time
Because that is when my heart… is most
content.
(Verse 4)
So right
here and now I try as best as I can
To love each
one from where ever I am.
As we
uncover science, I gain more opportunity
To continue
staying close with our friends and family.
(Chorus)
One day I
won’t have to leave my heart all over the world.
I won’t have
to divide it up that small.
I will feel
more love than I’ve ever known before in my life.
B/c one day
it will be back together. And I will feel whole again.
Final Chorus
Just like on
Sunday when those on earth and those in heaven.
Join all
together in communion.
And one day,
one day we will understand
When we are together
in heaven….in full communion…..what it’s like to be completely whole again.
