Ain't no gift like the present tense Ain't no love like an old romance Got'sta make hay when the sun is shinin' Can't waste time when it comes time to dance Slammin' this door with a heavy hand signin' this line like a deed to land keeping in touch with the windows down Dreading this night since the rain hit the ground Long live the heart Long live the soul That knows what it wants That piece you can find That part is the whole It never lets go Always tryin to be the one outlaw Goes where he wants never does get caught Pushing this line like the Lord ain't comin' Building this house like they're scared of something else Be my winter in this living hell Be my one last dying wishing well oh well Long live the heart Long live the soul That knows what it wants That piece you can find That part is the whole It never lets go Got'sta make hay when the sun is shinin Can't waste time when it comes time to dance keeping in touch with the windows down Dreading this night since the rain hit the ground Long live the heart Long live the soul That knows what it wants That piece you can find That part is the whole It never lets go Long live the heart Long live the soul That knows what it wants No matter how far How heavy this load It never lets go
