Conviction Of The Heart--Kenny Loggins

Where are the dreams that we once had
This is the time to bring them back
What were the promises caught on the tips of our tongues?

(Chorus)
Do we forget or forgive
There's a whole other life waiting to be lived when
One day we're brave enough
To talk with conviction of the heart

And down your streets I've walked alone
As if my feet were not my own
Such is the path I chose, doors I have opened and closed

(Chorus)
I'm tired of living this life
Fooling myself believing we're right when
I've never given love
With any conviction of the heart

One with the earth, with the sky
One with everything in life
I believe we'll survive
If we only try

How long must we wait to change
This world bound in chains that we live in

(Chorus)
To know what it is to forgive
And be forgiven

It's been too many years of talking now
Isn't it time to stop somehow
Air that's too angry to breathe, water our children can't drink

(Chorus)
You've heard it hundreds of times
You say you're aware, believe, and you care, but
Do you care enough
To talk with conviction of the heart
