Heart Swell

Don’t give me your age, colour, body, or skin,

It’s all about the person that lies within.

Don’t give me your stories, your tales, your tellings of time,

It’s all about the feeling you have now inside.

Give me your patience, your hoping, your wishing well,

And along this path you’ll meet those that make your heart swell.
