Manny Charlton — One From The Heart

(demo 1985)

I’ve seen that girl beforeI’ve seen the boys that come and go
And still she’s on her own
I’ve seen those tears beforeI’ve seen her heart break
She knows what it means to be alone

There must be another way to spend her life
While she is waiting

She knows the dangers therethese love affairs
Run hotrun cold and always take their toll
It’s another lonely night inside these empty rooms
She knows will never be at home

There must be another way to spend her life
While she is waiting

For one from the heart
She’s on her knees
One from the heartthat’s all she needs
One from the heartshe can believe

I’ve seen that girl beforeI’ve seen the boys that come and go
And still she’s on her own
I hope somewheresomehowsomeday
She’ll find that special one before her heart turns cold

There must be another way to spend her life
While she is waiting

For one from the heart
She’s on her knees
One from the heartthat’s all she needs
One from the heartshe can believe
