In The Highlands Of My Heart

Lyrics

Verse 1

I gave you all, I paid the price,
I crossed the winds, I broke the ice.
You touched my soul, then let it go,
But some things never lose their glow.

Pre-Refrain

You said goodbye with silent grace,
But I still see your shadowed face.

Refrain

In the highlands of my heart – your fire still burns,
Through the silence, my love returns.
Like a flame that won’t depart,
You live in the highlands of my heart.
No storm can tear us apart –
You’re my forever, from the start.

Verse 2

You walked away, but left your name,
Etched in stone, not lost to rain.
My voice is strong, I stand, I fight,
For love that lives in endless light.

Pre-Refrain

I feel your breath in every breeze,
A vow that echoes through the trees.

Refrain

In the highlands of my heart – your fire still burns,
Through the silence, my love returns.
Like a flame that won’t depart,
You live in the highlands of my heart.
No storm can tear us apart –
You’re my forever, from the start.

Bridge

Some love is loud, some love is deep...
Yours lives in me, and doesn’t sleep.

Final Refrain

In the highlands of my heart – no distance too wide,
You’re the thunder in my pride.
In the highlands of my heart – I know you’re near,
Every heartbeat, loud and clear.
And when the last song starts,
You’ll still be in the highlands of my heart.
