Story behind the song
Some people never open up to you- they think they are protecting themselves but they are ultimately losers. If we don't trust other people we will lose our way in the land of relationships.You can view every new person you meet as scary uncharted dangerous territory - or a thrilling chance to explore and maybe find someone new- and sometimes, if you're lucky,you may meet a guide.
Lyrics
THE HEARTS A FOREIGN COUNTRY Words and Music by Karena wynn-Moylan. c.2000.
V1:The Heart's a Strange country
Where we speak a language undefined
Searching for our direction
With destinations that are not signed
Stand at the border, the crossing, the moment,
I will meet you there --- if you want.
I will whisper in your ear
The password.
V2.Surrender your defences
Bring all your courage, your mind clear
You must trust me,trust me, trust me
But you must beware,
I will have the secret, the password, I'll tell you
It will free you, take you, to where,
You'll hear an answer.
V3. Wait at the border,for the crossing, the moment
I will meet you there.
You will return here, again and again
You think you know the language, the magic that will open the door,
But my heart's a foreign country.
