[Verse 1]
People come and go, living other lives
Running everywhere at such a speed
Never taking time to open up their eyes
Never knowing where life leads

[Chorus]
In the heartland people everywhere
Try to share their hopes and dreams
In the heartland on any given day
You can find your way back home

[Verse 2]
Take another breath and take another chance
Take another look at who you are
And get ready for your life 'cause it's such a crazy dance
So open up and you'll go far

[Chorus]
In the heartland people everywhere
Try to share their hopes and dreams
In the heartland on any given day
You can find your way back home

[Bridge]
We've been running so far away
From where our lives belong
Will we ever get back to the rhythm of the heartbeat?
Do you ever feel sad for those whose hearts have turned to stone?
You are not alone
[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
It's time to take it slow, time to take a rest
Time to leave the fast lane far behind
Live is hard enough, I know, bt you can only do your best
To get it in your heart and minds

[Chorus]
And in the heartland people everywhere
Try to share their hopes and dreams
In the heartland on any given day
You can find your way back home

In the heartland people everywhere
Try to share their hopes and dreams
In the heartland on any given day
