Paul Young - The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter Lyrics

Released: October 26, 1993

Songwriter: Doug James Paul Young

Producer: Don Was

It's suddenly so clear
What it is that brought me here
On a winding trailing of loneliness
Across plains of disappointment
Across rivers of tears
Never slowing down, never giving time to rest

The heart is a lonely hunter
It's hunger drives you on and on
The heart is a lonely hunter
'Till you find the place your heart belongs

So many times I'd had enough
So many nights I'd given up
But now I see its aim was true
From the first time you touched my hand
I know the one my heart demands
And all the while, it was leading me to you

The heart is a lonely hunter
It's hunger drives you on and on
The heart is a lonely hunter
'Till you find the place your heart belongs

You can feel your heart beat faster
And the tremble in your hands
And the thrill of getting closer
To the one your heart demands

The heart is a lonely hunter
It's hunger drives you on and on
The heart is a lonely hunter
'Till you find the place your heart belongs

And baby you're the place my heart belongs
Gotta find the place your heart belongs
