I Know

There's a street light out my window that looks just like the moon
And the wolf in my chest howls cross-country to you
Far out across the ocean a city burns all night
I feel like I understand it, but I don’t know quite why
If home is where the heart is, what happens when it's split in two?
I know I need to be here now
and I know, I know, I know that I love you
Last night I got to see you but it made me miss you more
It reminded me of all the days I hadn’t seen you since before
Way out here in Texas, the creeks have all run dry
Maybe I’m trying to fill them with all those tears I cry
If home is where the heart is, what happens when it's split in two?
I know I need to be here now and I know, I know, I know that I love you
Somewhere back in Iowa the leaves are turning red
I’m still working to make peace with all the things they never said
I’m learning to be honest, I’m learning to be strong
I’m learning that there’s way more gray than there is right and wrong
If home is where the heart is, what happens when it's split in two?
I know I need to be here now and I know, I know, I know that I love you
I keep the t-shirt you forgot under my pillow
Faint scent of you brings tears to my eyes
I don’t know the next time I’ll sleep next to you
And I’m terrified
That the memory of your skin on mine is fading
If home is where the heart is, what happens when it's split in two?
I know I need to be here now and I know, I know, I know I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
that I love you

Up on a small hill, nearby a small pond
Walls white and door blue like morning glories at dawn
Humble and small as it may seem
It's all ours and it's our dream
This is the house that love built
Little by little day by day
This is the house that love built
Whole family came to mix the clay
We'll live through the winter warm
Cuz the house that love built can weather any storm
It's four hundred square feet with eighteen-inch thick walls
Built all with our hands from sand and mud and straw
We had to get back to the land
It's the only thing the heart can understand
Now we'll fill it with music and laughter
Good food and good friends are the only things we're after
It's four hundred square feet with eighteen-inch thick walls
Up on a small hill, nearby a small pond
Walls white and door blue like morning glories at dawn

She Doesn't Mind (Live)

She's a pretty girl, with her long blonde hair
Her daddy keeps asking her when she's getting married
He's getting on in years, and he wants someone to take care of her
But she can't seem to tell him in a way he'll understand, that
She doesn't mind living alone
In her big farm house with her unlisted phone
There's a lawn to mow, chickens to feed, loyal dogs to keep her company
And at night boy, can't she see the stars
She's a pretty girl, with her wide blue eyes
Been to Africa and Mexico, Hong Kong, Italy, France
She can hold her own in the office with the guys
But she can't seem to tell them in a way they'll understand, that
She doesn't mind living alone
In her big farm house with her unlisted phone
There's a lawn to mow, chickens to feed, loyal dogs to keep her company
And at night boy, can't she see the stars
She's a pretty girl, with her two skilled hands
That can sculpt and draw and bake a pie, or a gourmet cake
She gets the strength she needs from the Lord and the land
If you saw her in her garden, you might start to understand
Why she doesn't mind living alone
In her big farm house with her unlisted phone
There's a lawn to mow, chickens to feed, loyal dogs to keep her company
Quilts on the bed, plates on the wall, friends in the kitchen, yeah she's got it all
Grandma's old dolls, Grandpa's John Deere, why would she ever move away from here?
Beautiful views from her front porch swing, she's got pretty much everything
And at night boy, can't she see the stars
And at night boy, can't she see the stars
Oh at night boy, she can see those stars

Connecting lightness and humor to loneliness and hurt. Taking her place in the lineage of acoustic folk songstresses, Heather is the real deal. She will brighten your day and soften your heart. ... more
