As we lay there in the dark, you said you could hear my heart Then you started to cry cause one day I'm gonna die
When the body slows What the heart just knows Is that the soul lets go Where does it go? I don't know, Oh...
Now I don't believe in Jesus as anything but a man I worry that religion is doing less good than bad And I know that that makes a lot of good people mad
What the heart just knows You feel it in your bones Is that the soul lets go Where does it go? I don't know, Oh...
And I'm scared that when they call me up Will I have done enough? I cannot see how
But as we lay there in the dark Darlin' I could hear your heart pound And I know that without that sound Mine... would probably give out
When the body slows What the heart just knows Is that the soul lets go Where does it go? Oh... I could get down on my knees but I don't know, Oh... And you don't know, and no one knows I just don't know...
