Lyrics

Loyal Hearts

We said “forever” under streetlight glow
Promised the world when the winds would blow
Now storms are raging, the money’s tight
But baby, I’m still holding on tonight
No wandering eyes when the nights get long
Your name’s the only one in my song

I could run, I could chase the thrill
But nothing feels right if it ain’t real

Loyalty, loyalty – it’s the chain that sets us free
I choose you in the dark, I choose you on my knees
Through the fire, through the rain, through the hurt and through the doubt
My heart stays right here, it won’t check out
Loyalty, loyalty – this is what love’s about

You’ve seen my worst and loved me still
Held my secrets, climbed every hill
When the world said “walk,” you stood by my side
Turned my broken into something alive
I won’t trade these years for shiny new
Every scar we earned just proves we’re true

They can offer the moon on a silver plate
I’d rather have your hand at heaven’s gate
Loyalty, loyalty – it’s the chain that sets us free
I choose you in the dark, I choose you on my knees
Through the fire, through the rain, through the hurt and through the doubt
My heart stays right here, it won’t check out
Loyalty, loyalty – this is what love’s about

Let them call it old-fashioned, let them laugh and walk away
I’d rather build a fortress than a temporary flame
When the last light flickers and the curtains start to fall
I’ll still be loving you with everything I am, that’s all

Loyalty, loyalty – carved in the stone of me
Every breath, every beat, belongs to we
Till the stars burn out and time runs dry
I’ll be yours, and you’ll be mine
Loyalty… loyalty…
This is what love’s about

Yeah, I’m still here…
Right here with you.
