Lyrics
- Hearts are such wonderful things
A melody ev’ry heart sings
There’s the heart of a mother, a sister, a brother
What a wonderful joy each one brings
Still there’s the heart of a friend
One on whom you can depend
And when you came to me I could easily see
That my journey had come to an end
Refrain
For there’s only one heart in loveland
Only one face I can see
Two eyes of blue that are tender and true
They mean more than heaven to me
And when I heard you call from loveland
I knew it was love’s melody
All the world seems aglow
Now that I really know
There is one heart in Loveland for me
2. Hearts bear all sorrows and pain
For sometimes they yearn all in vain
But when love is discovered then joy is uncovered
And your losses all turn into gain
When you came, I heard love’s song
I saw the right from the wrong
And I thank’d Him on high
When He sent from the sky
The one gift for which I’ve waited long
