I chased the fire no map in hand
My heart pulled me where reason couldn't stand
Burned by the blaze but I felt so alive
I'd do it all again just to feel that high
Every turn I've taken every road I've crossed
Led me back to lessons in the love I lost
Now my heart's writing checks my soul can't defend
Cleaning up the wrecks when the love songs end
Every scar a story every ache a trend
But it's my heart that always mends
Now I weigh the risk I feel the cost
Don't always rush in to catch what's lost
Still let my heart lead but my head's in tow
I've learned the dance the ebb and flow
Every turn I've taken every road I've crossed
Led me back to lessons in the love I lost
Now my heart's writing checks my soul can't defend
Cleaning up the wrecks when the love songs end
Every scar a story every ache a trend
But it's my heart that always mends
Like a river finds its flow guided by the tides
Heart takes the leap head clears the skies
It's not about choosing one or the other
It's the blend of the two that makes us recover
Now my heart and my mind find ways to defend
Building bridges stronger where the roads might bend
Every scar a chapter every ache a friend
And it's my heart that always mends
I'll follow my heart but I'll bring my mind
In the harmony of both the truth I'll find
Every scar it mends my heart amends
