Record Tracklist

  1. Aiming For Your Heart -:-- / -:--

Vividly, I can conjure in my mind
The day I said out loud you would be mine
And though the odds might have cast it all in doubt
Something drew me in I had to figure out
Sometimes you go in blind

When the road is dark
And it takes faith to see
I hit the pedal hard
Untroubled by the speed
I know that I’ll end up
Right where I’m supposed to be
‘Cause I’m aiming for your heart

You could’ve had your pick of any in your reach
By no small miracle it turns out you chose me
And so it was that over breakfast one fine morning
We started making two lives into one
Some dreams are meant to be

When the road is dark
And it takes faith to see
I hit the pedal hard
Untroubled by the speed
I know that I’ll end up
Right where I’m supposed to be
‘Cause I’m aiming for your heart

Storms rage from a distance
I can face them with the strength that lifts us
I’m keeping my course set on this one thing:

When the road is dark
It takes faith to see
I hit the pedal hard
Untroubled by the speed
I know that I’ll end up
Right where I’m supposed to be
‘Cause I’m aiming for your heart
