K.C
Take another sip-o-wine
You gotta get her off your mind
You can talk about your heartbreak to me
Ok, K.C. I wish it could be easy
Just another lesson of the heart

K.C
We were feelin' out of place
So we made our own escape
In that New York cafe place to be
Outsider, traveler you and me
We were laughing about it
Kept us out of reach

I won't forget that night
I won't forget that light
Through the window and the lace
Making patterns on your face

Exposed with all your pain
I know it hurts the worst
That very first love mistake

You said we'll still be sitting
Here again someday
Laughing at ourselves this way
After time has healed and made it right
We'll still be looking in each other's eyes
And through it all
It's friends who will survive

I won't forget that night
I won't forget that light
Through the window and the lace
Making patterns on your face

Exposed with pain
I know it hurts the worst
That very first love mistake

I won't forget that night
I won't forge that light
Through the window and the lace
Making patterns on your face

Exposed with all your pain
I know it hurts the worst
That very first love mistake

Heart

Heart, lead by Ann and Nancy Wilson, is considered a — or the — Grand Dame of hard rock and heavy metal.

Not only do they have more hit singles and AOR tracks than most other bands (songs we’d go over in detail but they’re listed on this very page in order of popularity) but in some ways deeper respect than many, both for their own groundbreaking talent and appeal and some unusual recognition thereof, including having been picked to perform Stairway to Heaven for Led Zeppelin themselves at the Kennedy Center Honors in 2012, making Robert Plant and company actually cry. Not Rush, not Aerosmith, nor any of the other bands beloved rock/metal that — along with Ann and Nancy’s band — followed Zeppelin by one generation. Just Heart.

Starting in the mid seventies, Heart forged a unique and powerful sound outstanding in their field, and was unusual in topping the charts well into their own second decade in the late eighties, becoming a staple of MTV’s rotation, albeit sometimes crammed by the industry into music videos that the bandmates despised and comment on to this day.
