Lyrics
Does Your Heart Ever Stop Feeling
Brushed aside the cobwebs
Blew away the dust
Touched faded green satin and was
Transported to the past
Flipped through brittle pages
Fashioned from tall trees
Each one filled with secrets
Spilling onto falling leaves
Does your heart ever stop feeling
Does your heart ever forget
If years have passed and chapters closed
Does your heart still know
Does your heart let go
If years have passed and chapters closed
Does your heart still know
Does your heart let go
Does your heart ever stop feeling
Scribbled fears and longings
Of this girl that I once knew
Swore that each and every boy
She touched was love-was real
Questioned all her actions
But she started living dreams
Filled the pages of her life
Creating memories
Does your heart ever stop feeling
Does your heart ever regret
If years have passed and chapters closed
Does your heart still know
Does your heart let go
If years have passed and chapters closed
Does your heart still know
Does your heart let go
Does your heart ever stop
The promise of a brand new start's
just a lie whispered in the dark
Your mind leaves yesterday behind
While your heart pretends it mends
Out slips a folded letter
Maybe fallen from some page
And as I read can't stop those tears
From streaming down my face
I weep for who I once was
Shed tears because I've changed
I cry because the time has passed
But still my heart remains
Does your heart ever stop feeling
Does your heart ever reset
If years have passed and chapters closed
Does your heart still know
Does your heart let go
If years have passed and chapters closed
Does your heart still know
Does your heart let go
Does your heart ever stop feeling
