Description
"This Heart" from "Full Circle" album (released 2003) was written by Dan Fogelberg. Dan does this song in a heartfelt way, and I love how his magic has aged like fine wine. I tried using movie scenes recreate the video, hope you enjoy the different flavors.
"It's a very positive song. I wrote it for my wife Jeanie. People should be able to go on and improve in their life. I want to encourage people that, no matter what life dishes you, you've got to go on and it gets better. That's what this song is about. It evolved from the mid-'90s to the late '90s."
"It has a kind of final feeling to me. It would really be a wonderful way to end, going all the way back to where I started. It feels very complete. It feels like a great place to conclude what I started with 'Home Free' (in 1972).
I hope you can see improvement in my songwriting over the years. I hope people can see I am a more mature or better songwriter than I was when I wrote 'Home Free,' "
"From my perspective, if I don't keep improving and challenging myself I might as well quit."
His wife, Jean, a former professional musician herself, and bassist Kenny Passarelli, add backing vocals on two tracks, "This Heart" and the defining artistic statement, "Icarus Ascending."
This Heart (Lyrics)
CHORUS
This heart - this heart
Has been beaten down and battered
This heart - this heart
Has been torn apart and scattered
But what's left of this heart of mine
I will lay down in your hands
'Cause in the light of your love
This heart still stands
Well I'd been walking down a one way street
Filled with sorrow and confusion
Searching every single face I'd meet
For some heaven I could hold
And when I felt like I was running dry
And love was always gonna pass me by
You brought me out of the rain and in from the cold
Repeat CHORUS
Well I believe for every wayward soul
Crying out for its completion
There's another that will make it whole
That's just waiting to be found
And I confess that I was losing faith
And I'd all but given up the chase
When you took hold of my heart and turned it around
Repeat CHORUS
(After instrumental)
What's left of this heart of mine I will lay down in your hands
'Cause in the light of your love this heart still stands
Repeat CHORUS
Fade.....
