When the darkness that surrounds you Is all that you can see And fear climbs inside your chest And makes it hard to breathe Just listen There's an answer in the silence Right behind the noise Well it's distant yet familiar It's the sound of your own voice All you have to do is listen Sometimes the whisper in your head Is really from your heart Sometimes the smallest star Can burn the brightest in the dark You are a fire even if you think You're just a spark Sometimes the whisper in your head Is really from your heart When the straight and when the narrow Becomes a thousand roads Let your footsteps be your compass You know which way to go All you have to do is listen Sometimes the whisper in your head Is really from your heart Sometimes the smallest star Can burn the brightest in the dark You are a fire even if you think You're just a spark Sometimes the whisper in your head Is really from your heart Close your eyes Close your eyes and listen Sometimes the whisper in your head Is really from your heart Sometimes the smallest star Can burn the brightest in the dark You are a fire even if you think You're just a spark Sometimes the whisper in your head Is really from your heart From your heart
