Chris De Burgh — One Word Straight to the Heart

One word, one heart, one night, is all I want One word, one heart, one girl, is waiting there for me; Midnight, and all is well I hear the mission bell Out on the road, nothing is moving As I speed from town to town; Two hearts are beating fast But they are still many miles apart Oh the mood was shining on a distant shore Burning like a fire in my heart I've got to see her, I've got to say - One word, one heart, one night, is all I want One word, one heart, one girl, is waiting there for me I never knew I cared so much before I've got to tell her tonight - straight to the heart I'm going to tell her tonight - straight to the heart I've got to tell her tonight - straight to the heart Like a cannonball... Headlights are blazing through Turn on the radio, I hear the news Hand on the wheel, foot on the floor And on, and on, and on we go This car is like a friend Bring her the message that I want to send Oh the dawn was breaking and I saw the sun Burning like a fire on the bay I'm nearly there now, I'm gonna say - One word, one heart, one night, is all I want One word, one heart, one girl, is waiting there for me I never knew I cared so much before I've got to tell her tonight - straight to the heart I've got to tell her tonight - straight to the heart I've got to tell her tonight - straight to the heart Like a cannonball... One word, (yes,) one heart One night, (yes,) one girl, (yes,) I've got to tell her tonight - straight to the heart I've got to tell her tonight - straight to the heart I've got to give her my love - straight to the heart I've got to give her my love - straight to the heart I've got to tell her myself - straight to the heart I've got to tell her tonight - straight to the heart Like a cannonball...
