Lyrics

Verse:
I wear emotions on my sleeve.
Sometimes I’m too vocal about things that I believe.
I can push too much, and I can drive too hard,
I throw away some things I should not discard.

Chorus:
But my heart is in the right place,
And so it is with you.
I gotta walk the line between giving you space
And helping you make it through
But my heart is in the right place with you.

Verse:
The road less traveled, it ain’t been less hard.
I’ve walked on glass and felt every shard.
And yeah, it’s changed me,
It’s made me this man.
Complicated, and hard to understand.

Chorus:
But my heart is in the right place,
And so it is with you.
I gotta walk the line between giving you space,
And helping you make it through.
But I never drop the ball, I give it my all,
I always come through.
My heart is in the right place with you.

Musical Bridge

Verse:
Sometimes I speak, when I ought not talk.
I stand my ground sometimes
When I should take a walk.
At times I’m goofy, sometimes odd.
But I keep my word, I believe in God.









Chorus:
My Heart is in the right place
So it is with you.
I’ve gotta walk the line between giving you space
And helping you make it through
If you’re going to place your bet on a man you’ve met,
Then it best be you know who.
‘Cause my heart is in the right place with you.

Short Chorus:
I never drop the ball, I give it my all,
I always come through.
My heart is in the right place with you.
