A Place In Your Heart Lyrics - Ray Davies

Hold tight, things are growin' cold inside ya' never known 

Cut to the rawhide right to the metal bone 

Strap a live across your knees to the back where your jawbone freezes 

Bitter bad lightning freeze 

Who needs to ride a train 

When we got the natural motion 

That's gonna take us right across the line 

[inaudible] that you ever see 

Whoa, whoa 

Hey, look at that big sky 

Look at that moonglow lightin' up the Rockies 

On the way to Idaho 

Take out your fiddle put your hand on the bow 

Rustle up through the tune put a rhythm in your toe-o 

Hello? is anybody there? hello? 

I can't explain 

And I'm letting my emotions get the better of me 

Your always on my mind 

But I can't tell you that I willingly follow you 

If I can't have you 

How can I expect to have a place in your heart? 

But I wouldn't be so bold 

As to expect that you have feelings for me, oh no 

Can I get it to you 

West to East, under the stars 

'Cause then I will have to admit defeat 

It's a thousand miles to the nearest bar 

An' I wouldn't want to bother you 

West to East, 'til we reach Valhalla 

'Cause then I won't have to admit I'm alone 

West to East 

It's bothering me 

In the land of the free 

See the sign up ahead, see the moon behind 

Place in your heart 

You were right on time with gonna' get there come rain or shine 

You're always on my mind 

In Omaha city 

Soon be over in time 

I can't tell you that I'd really follow you 

I can't admit it to you 

West to East, under the stars 

'Cause then I will have to admit defeat 

It's a thousand miles to the nearest bar 

And I wouldn't want to bother you 

West to East 'til we reach Valhalla 

'Cause then I won't have to admit I'm alone 

West to East 

It's bothering me 

In the land of the free 

See the sign up ahead, see the moon behind 

Place in your heart 

You were right on time with gonna' get there come rain or shine 

And I wouldn't be so bored 

In Omaha city 

Soon be over in time 

To expect you to have feelings for me, oh no 

Make the most of nature's great highway 

Rest [inaudible] night turn into day 

Moved so fast to [inaudible] and you can't stay 

A place in your heart 

Alright lads, I gotta phone home 

Hey, Ray, what's the deal? 

Let's get this show on the road 

Alright then 

I can't explain 

(Come get a train) 

Am I let my emotions get the better of me 

(Take a [inaudible] across a [inaudible] plain) 

You're always on my mind 

But I can't tell you that I really may follow you 

To the end of the earth 

West to East, follow that star 

Thousand miles to the nearest bar 

Rattlin' wind, hold on tight 

Rap up [inaudible], it'll blow you apart 

Pass that whiskey, stoke up the stove 

Pluck that string, wiggle that bow 

Midwest show, thunder and rain 

Get to the East coast, turn around and head West again 

Move so fast to [inaudible] and you can't stay 

A place in your heart
