Two Hearts by Bertie Koller

bank the coals on the hearth / to push back the cold / i'm not young anymore / but nor am I old / I've lived enough to know / that I don't know a thing / & that the wisdom in a song / is harder to live than to sing / inside my chest / there are two hearts / one radiates light / & another holds the dark / you say you don't want me / in your life anymore / that you have turned the key / & locked that door / if you can't find the answers that you want / in the questions that you ask / just remember that what you turn away / might not come back / inside my chest / there are two hearts / one radiates light / & another holds the dark / some nights I can't sleep / in the bed that I have made / for one of these days / that bed's gonna be my grave / oh that old north wind / blows down the snow / I bank the coals on the hearth / to push back the cold / inside my chest / there are two hearts / one radiates light / & another holds the dark
