Heartlight Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I like the love
And I like the peaceful
I wish everyone I know could
Stand in the heartlight
I hold the hand
I walk with the teacher
We welcome in the morning
Singing together


[Pre-Chorus]
Can you feel the love that's in my heart?
Can you see the flame we got to start?
Burning like a beacon in the night
Oh, welcome to heartlight

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, welcome to heartlight
[Verse 2]
I'm like the rain
'Cause I like your thunder
I know we've learned to live together
Here in the heartlight
Stand in the dark
Oh, oh, and I'll light a candle
And then we'll dance it in the moonlight
Until the sunrise

[Pre-Chorus]
Can you feel the love that's in my heart?
Can't you see the flame we've got to start?
Burning like a beacon in the night
Oh, welcome to heartlight

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, welcome to heartlight
[Instrumental Break]

[Pre-Chorus]
Can you feel the love that's in my heart?
Can't you see the flame we've got to start?
Burning like a beacon in the night
Oh, welcome to heartlight

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight
Welcome to heartlight

[Outro]
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight (Heartlight)
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight (Oh, heartlight)
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight (Heartlight)
Oh, oh, heartlight (Heartlight)
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight (Heartlight)
Oh, oh, heartlight (Heartlight)
Oh, oh, heartlight (Heartlight)
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight (Oh, heartlight)
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight (Heartlight)
Oh, oh, heartlight (Heartlight)
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight
Oh, oh, heartlight
