My Heart Has A Mind of Its Own - Henry Gross

I know where the river flows

I know where the warm wind blows

I know and I’d go there if I could

I’m standing at the water’s edge

With every bad memory that my thoughts can dredge

Wanna drown 'em now, sail on out to sea and be free

Wanna disappear without a trace

Find myself a hiding place

But that voice in my head has been getting in my face

My heart has a mind of its own

I follow wherever it goes

It’s a minefield of danger when you’re led by a stranger

But my heart has a mind of its own

Wish I could claim responsibility

For bringing some peace and tranquility

I’d be a better man in all probability

But every story has got three sides

Hers, mine and the truth we deny

Lucky for me I don’t need to decide

My heart has a mind of its own

I follow wherever it goes

It’s a minefield of danger when you’re led by a stranger

But my heart has a mind of its own

It’s not the time for floating downstream

Gotta pull myself together

Before I come apart at the seams

My heart has a mind of its own

I follow wherever it goes

It’s a minefield of danger when you’re led by a stranger

But my heart has a mind of its own

There’s big trouble brewing at home

My eyes see it coming but my hands keep on strumming

'Cause my heart has a mind of its own
