Come to me now
Won't you rest your life for a while?
Girl, this is not your style
Maybe it's not your way
The tears behind your smile
Your trembling mouth, so fragile
With the fears of a frightened child
You've tangled up your day
The heart is the hunter
The heart is the dove
And as it lets the arrow fly
It wounds itself in love
The heart is the hunter
And it will capture the light again
Then it's gonna learn to let it out
Learn to let it in
You flew toward the sun
Touching down on everyone
You tried them on just for fun
You dared yourself to fool
You can hide your eyes right here
I see the bruises and I see the fear
Let it go, don't hide the tears
'Cause I'm gonna love you most of all
The heart is the hunter
The heart is the dove
And as it lets the arrow fly
It wounds itself in love
The heart is the hunter
And it will capture the light again
Then it's gonna learn to let it out
Learn to let it in
Won't you rest your life for a while?
Girl, this is not your style
Maybe it's not your way
The tears behind your smile
Your trembling mouth, so fragile
With the fears of a frightened child
You've tangled up your day
The heart is the hunter
The heart is the dove
And as it lets the arrow fly
It wounds itself in love
The heart is the hunter
And it will capture the light again
Then it's gonna learn to let it out
Learn to let it in
You flew toward the sun
Touching down on everyone
You tried them on just for fun
You dared yourself to fool
You can hide your eyes right here
I see the bruises and I see the fear
Let it go, don't hide the tears
'Cause I'm gonna love you most of all
The heart is the hunter
The heart is the dove
And as it lets the arrow fly
It wounds itself in love
The heart is the hunter
And it will capture the light again
Then it's gonna learn to let it out
Learn to let it in
