Maureen McGovern ~ State of the Heart


I tell myself I'm not looking for love I tell myself it's the last thing I'm thinking of I've got no expectations And I mean just what I say Then I look into his eyes Damned if I don't lose my head And I wonder how I thought Those things I said It's the state of the heart, State of the heart Ready to risk it all, Willing to fall There are ways to keep it safe, Ways to play it smart But I've never learned the art It's just the state of the heart State of the heart I ought to know time never stands still I ought to know but I always believe it will I've had those perfect moments Turn to days of silent pain But I hate to turn away If there's a chance, he's the one I admit that I'm no good At sleep and run That's the state of the heart, State of the heart Ready to risk it all, Willing to fall There are ways to keep it safe, Ways to play it smart But I've never learned the art That's just the state of the heart State of the heart INSTRUMENTAL BRIDGE But I hate to turn away If there's a chance, he's the one I admit that I'm no good At sleep and run That's the state of the heart, The state of the heart Ready to risk it all, Willing to fall There are ways to keep it safe There are ways to play it smart But I've never learned the art That's just the state of the heart State of the heart State of the heart State of the heart State of the heart State of the heart (repeat and fade out) more free lyrics

I tell myself I'm not looking for love
I tell myself it's the last thing I'm thinking of
I've got no expectations
And I mean just what I say
Then I look into his eyes
Damned if I don't lose my head
And I wonder how I thought
Those things I said

It's the state of the heart,
State of the heart
Ready to risk it all,
Willing to fall
There are ways to keep it safe,
Ways to play it smart
But I've never learned the art
It's just the state of the heart
State of the heart

I ought to know time never stands still
I ought to know but I always believe it will
I've had those perfect moments
Turn to days of silent pain
But I hate to turn away
If there's a chance, he's the one
I admit that I'm no good
At sleep and run

That's the state of the heart,
State of the heart
Ready to risk it all,
Willing to fall
There are ways to keep it safe,
Ways to play it smart
But I've never learned the art
That's just the state of the heart
State of the heart

INSTRUMENTAL BRIDGE

But I hate to turn away
If there's a chance, he's the one
I admit that I'm no good
At sleep and run

That's the state of the heart,
The state of the heart
Ready to risk it all,
Willing to fall
There are ways to keep it safe
There are ways to play it smart
But I've never learned the art
That's just the state of the heart
State of the heart

State of the heart
State of the heart
State of the heart

State of the heart
(repeat and fade out)

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
