Between Two Hearts

You just have to love the cheese that was rock in the 80's (and I guess onwards). Well I'm still on Dio for now. Mostly because the news of his passing just brought back a lot of memories from my somewhat misspent youth.

Good times I tell you... good times.

"Between two hearts" was one that kinda struck a chord with me (no pun intended) in my early teens. From the album, "Lock up the Wolves" which I played to death on cassette (anyone remember those?).

She never breaks into the conversation
He seems to be the reason why she lives
She tries to be the perfect kind of stranger
But we always seem to love the most
The ones who never give

It's between two hearts
A personal situation
It's between two hearts
The kind of love with a bad reputation

We never have to ask her why she's crying
The simile she had's been kicked into a frown
But still it makes her day to be his pleasure
Should we open up her eyes
Can we ever break the spell

It's between two hearts
A personal combination
It's between two hearts
The kind of love with a bad reputation

Put on your party face and come along
Join in the big parade
Here comes the camera
Do you look as good as your sister
Smile at the animals
They should be the ones in the cages
Turn the page

Another way to spend a rainy Sunday
Waiting for a call that never comes
The mystery is how she makes her choices
But don't we always choose
The ones who hide the sun

It's between two hearts
Love and desperation
It's between two hearts
The kind of love
Between two hearts
A personal situation
It's between two hearts
The kind of love with a reputation


I suppose I'll kick back and just enjoy the tunes for now. Thankfully some things echo long after we are gone.
