Nothing compares to a mother's love A hiding place when push comes to shove Cinderella's dreams, diamond rings I try to fill my heart, with earthly things Still there is a place that seems so empty It's the deepest part of me That only you can fill There's a place in my heart That I want you near It's a place in my heart I hold most dear There's a place in my heart That wants you so But it's so hard to let it go Just the other day, I turned my thoughts astray From a history of reason to give my heart away This thought progressed through time The path seemed unkind Lonely and clear it overwhelmed my mind And if I release this part of me, dear Lord Is it true what you say Am I received as your child There's a place in my heart That I want you near It's a place in my heart I hold most dear There's a place in my heart That wants you so But it's so hard to let it go Life is hard, this world is cold I need you more and more today I build up walls to stop the pain It still won't go won't go away Surrendering on bended knee This part of me I surrender to you There's a place in my heart That I want you near It's a place in my heart I hold most dear There's a place in my heart That wants you so But it's so hard to let it go
