Never Stop Her Heart Lyrics - Restless Nights - Karla Bonoff

Like a bird she was wounded 

A prisoner he found 

He kept her beside him on the ground 

She wanted him to release her 

But he didn want her to fly 

He had come to depend on seeing her cry 

CHORUS 

He cut her wings 

But she could still sing 

He didn't see he could never stop her heart 

Just like in a cage he kept her 

But inside she grew strong 

And in some ways it was nice 

to have a place to belong 

But freedom called in its own way 

soft moonlit nights in her thoughts 

And the war raged on inside 

that she always fought 

CHORUS 

Ah, the love that plays in the strangest ways 

She felt his warm embrace like fire inside her 

And when the day would break, it seemed 

her heart would shake 

But she knew he had her soul at stake 

CHORUS 

Like a bird she was wounded 

A prisoner he found 

But time was running out, he couldn't 

keep her down 

So one day he released her 

Thinking that she wouldn't go 

But how she was able to fly 

was something he'd never know 

CHORUS
