When the Heart Rules the Mind by GTR

From Wikipedia:
GTR is the self-titled debut album and sole official studio release from the short-lived supergroup GTR. The album peaked at No. 11 on the Billboard 200 chart, and the single "When the Heart Rules the Mind" reached No. 14 on the Billboard Hot 100 single chart. Another single, "The Hunter," peaked at No. 85.

The group, founded by ex-Genesis guitarist Steve Hackett and then ex-Yes and Asia guitarist Steve Howe, disbanded in 1987.

The band's name, anecdotally, comes from the marking on the studio mixing console that indicates the 'guitar' volume control.

The album was reissued in 2001 in a remastered CD edition. The album is currently out of print, with the exception of a Japanese mini-LP CD released in 2006.


Lyrics:
Mother protect me, protect me from myself
Lately I can't tell, who really are my friends
Burning the candle, the candle at both ends
Through crowds, across floors
Each night I just pretend

When the heart rules the mind
One look and love is blind
When you want the dream to last
Take a chance forget the past

Watching the actor, that takes the stage by storm
Stealing the limelight, while we're in the wings
Sometimes the hero, must play the underdog
But I don't feel the same
I must have everything

When the heart rules the mind
One look and love is blind
When you want the dream to last
Take a chance forget the past

Seasons will change
You must move on
Follow your dream

Excellent job once again! What a blast from the past. I haven't heard this song

since it was originally released. Great song! and thanks for the lyrics.

You should take on some Gentle Giant tunes someday. Or maybe Marillion or IQ.

I'm doing the happy dance now that you've tackled this relatively obscure material, though. Great job!
