A Little Piece Of Your Heart
In the halls of our high school
Locking eyes for the first time
I was mesmerized
You had it all going on you were rebel strong
With a heart of gold that shone so bright
Lit up my life
It took us all of a second to fall
But our folks wouldn't listen
They didn't get it
They lectured us every minute
Cause we might have been young but we knew it was love
You stood up to our folks and you said
I don't care if I don't own a house
I've got plenty of time for that
I don't care if I don't own a yacht
Nothing like Summer on the river floating on your back
And who cares if I don't own a car
I can easily hitch to where you are
Only 1 thing I'd love to own
A little piece of your heart to call my own
It's a moment I cherish a story one day we'll tell our kids
How mum and daddy found their happiness
Ask me the meaning of life and I'll tell you
I found it back in our high school hall
When I let my heart feel it all
It took me all of a second to know
That you were my person
My forever
My flesh and blood ever after
Cause we might have been young but we knew it was love
I stood up to my mum and I said
I don't care if I don't own a house
I've got plenty of time for that
I don't care if I don't own a yacht
Nothing like Summer on the river floating on your back
And who cares if I don't own a car
I can easily hitch to where you are
Only 1 thing I'd love to own
A little piece of your heart to call my own
Took all of a second to fall
But our folks wouldn't listen
They didn't get it
They lectured us every minute
You've got to graduate
And go to college
Get a job
Make some money
We showed them what our love could bring
We did everything our way
Now we own a beautiful house
We had plenty of time for that
Never needed to own our own yacht
Still nothing like Summer on the river floating on our backs
And we both drive a suitable car
We no longer have to hitch to each other
Only 1 thing we love to own
A little piece of each other's heart to call our own
Locking eyes for the first time
I was mesmerized
You had it all going on you were rebel strong
With a heart of gold that shone so bright
Lit up my life
It took us all of a second to fall
But our folks wouldn't listen
They didn't get it
They lectured us every minute
Cause we might have been young but we knew it was love
You stood up to our folks and you said
I don't care if I don't own a house
I've got plenty of time for that
I don't care if I don't own a yacht
Nothing like Summer on the river floating on your back
And who cares if I don't own a car
I can easily hitch to where you are
Only 1 thing I'd love to own
A little piece of your heart to call my own
It's a moment I cherish a story one day we'll tell our kids
How mum and daddy found their happiness
Ask me the meaning of life and I'll tell you
I found it back in our high school hall
When I let my heart feel it all
It took me all of a second to know
That you were my person
My forever
My flesh and blood ever after
Cause we might have been young but we knew it was love
I stood up to my mum and I said
I don't care if I don't own a house

I don't care if I don't own a yacht
Nothing like Summer on the river floating on your back
And who cares if I don't own a car
I can easily hitch to where you are
Only 1 thing I'd love to own
A little piece of your heart to call my own

We no longer have to hitch to each other
Only 1 thing we love to own
A little piece of each other's heart to call our own
