Map of My Heart Mary Chapin Carpenter

Map of My Heart - Mary Chapin Carpenter
[Verse 1]
The map of my heart looks a lot like yours
From one way streets to the old detours
To the dark dead ends with their missing signs
The sun and the moon and the roads that wind
Like the stories we tell
Tracing the roots
Wind in my ears
Dirt on my boots

[Verse 2]
The map of my heart is torn at the corners
From ignoring the warnings, disobeying the orders
I've been lost in a crowd, found in solitary
I'd learned how to travel with just what I could carry
Towards the vast unseen and the great unknown
The map of the heart is all that we own

[Bridge]
Leaving safety to chance and reason behind
X marks every spot, I thought I'd lost my mind
I didn't think that I could but I couldn't stop trying

[Verse 3]
And I can't stop trying to hold in my hands
That moment I could feel my heart expand
With more love than I thought could exist in the world
The hollows were gone, the emptiness filled
With life transformed down to the bone
This map of my heart is all that I own
