Keep It in Your Heart
Whispers of Wisdom: Embracing Life's Lessons in 'Keep It in Your Heart'
Lyrics
The thrift shops open Thursdays it's got such a musty smell
The thrift shop, open on Thursdays, has a musty smell.
And Sunday morning sermons used to scare me right to hell
Sunday morning sermons used to frighten the speaker.
I learned to keep my mouth shut
The speaker learned to keep silent.
I learned what not to do
The speaker learned what actions to avoid.
I learned how not to listen when they're talking right at you.
The speaker learned not to listen when others talk directly to them.
Now right before my eyes, I've seen but don't believe
The speaker has witnessed something unbelievable but struggles to believe it.
How can you treat people as if they are diseased?
Questioning how someone can treat others as if they are diseased.
I learned to learn from lessons
The speaker learned to learn from life's lessons.
I vowed to do my share
The speaker is committed to doing their share.
I tried to make a difference in this Western hemisphere
The speaker attempted to make a positive impact in the Western hemisphere.
If you keep it in your heart for me, then I will do the same for you
If the listener keeps the speaker in their heart, the speaker will reciprocate.
And for the rest of my life, I'll hold you in my dreams
The speaker promises to hold the listener in their dreams for the rest of their life.
You mean the world to me
The listener means the world to the speaker.
I'd like to take this walk with you for all the rest of time
The speaker expresses a desire to walk through life with the listener indefinitely.
Through thunderstorms and sunsets with you right by my side
Through challenges and pleasant moments, the speaker wants the listener by their side.
I've learned so much from you girl
The speaker acknowledges learning a lot from the listener, especially about love.
I've learned what love's about
The speaker has learned the essence of love from the listener.
You've taught me how to listen and when to shut my mouth
The listener has taught the speaker when to listen and when to stay silent.
