Playing a card game at a folk festival. Pete Morton asked my Amy what he should do next, and she helpfully replied ‘Any Heart will do’.
Good title for a song he said … and said that I could have that to work with, so I did. It became a song about lust 🙂
Any Heart Will Do
In the desert of desire, seeking love for the fire
Always driving, never tiring,
Any heart will do
I’m waiting for a fusion, passion tearing at the leash
Desperation holds the keys now
Any heart will do
Ch: But satisfaction lasts a moment
Soon it’s gone and forgotten,
A prisoner in time, and I’m left wanting,
Any heart will do,
Any heart will do,
Any heart will do darling
But I’m looking for you.
I want to feel the warmth in my life
Butterflies dance on the wings of romance
Fuelled by the flames of our love
But for now, any heart will do,
Sometimes I think I might have found you
Lust and kisses flowing free
Awakened by the music in your soul
But is this fantasy?
Ch:
Tonight, it’s just me and the beer
Guitar and pen in hand
Musing on life’s twisting, and turning
These thoughts around my mind
I know I’ll lose my heart again one day
Once it’s gone it won’t hold back in love
But it’s got to be right love
Any heart won’t do
Ch:
I can feel a strong beat quicken,
You’re always on my mind
This could be right love, in its time love,
Your heart and mine.
