Collin Raye "What the heart wants"

Collin Raye's "What The Heart Wants" (Credit to Collin Raye)


She met him down at the laundrymat
3 a.m. on a washing machine they sat
And talked til dawn
He bought her breakfast at a small cafe
Morning turned to the rest of the day
When the day was gone
He thought that she'd surely runaway
No fairy tale ever started this way but

It ain't the mind that calls the shots round here
When stronger powers pull two bodies near
Nothing on earth can interfere
When love is
What the heart wants

They made a wish on the evening star
From a rooftop high above the boulevard
Up in the twilight sky
He held her hand she held her breathe
Two lonely hearts beating scared to death
Of the chance to fly
Giving in to the arms of fate
This isn't quite like the plans that they make but

It ain't the mind that calls the shots round here
When stronger powers pull two bodies near
Nothing on earth can interfere
When love is
What the heart wants

It ain't the mind that calls the shots round here
When stronger powers pull two bodies near
Nothing on earth can interfere
When love is
What the heart wants

It ain't the mind that calls the shots round here
When stronger powers pull two bodies near
Nothing on earth can interfere
When love is
What the heart wants
Nothing on earth can interfere
When love is

Another of my all time favs. Man, call me crazy, I don't care, but there IS a woman out there, for me, and I'm for her. This, to me, would be the perfect beginning...at a laundromat...the place doesn't matter, just the feeling does. How powerful...and a lot of ppl found "true" love this way. I'll wait patiently for mine to show, in an unexpected way :) Thanks for putting this up.

I had a moment earlier today where a girl that I am stuck in the friend zone with suddenly seemed to carry herself differently around me. She may finally be giving into the arms of fate. I'm starting to see that the reason we stay close and never let go is because it isn't the mind that calls the shots. Stronger powers are at work.

Actually it made it to #2 in 1997 on the chart. Collin is an awesome artist, and an "artist" he certainly is.
