By Heart lyrics

Her face reflects as much of me as any mirror can
And my image in her eyes is all I know of who I am
But even as I see myself the lines begin to blur
For who I am has long been tied and tangled up in her.

And it isnt luck or chance she can read me at a glance
Not just because shes clever and shes smart
No, its just by now she knows my heart
By heart.

It seems like its been centuries since she and I began
And both of us took all our chances on a single hand
Though we took it day to day its gone from year to year
And no one ever close to me was ever half as near.

And it isnt any trick or because her mind is quick
She reaches my conclusions as I start
No, its just by now she knows my heart
By heart.

And amazing as it seems she brings magic to my dreams
Not just because shes mastered magics art
No, its just by now she knows my heart
By heart.

She knows my heart...
