[Paul Simon - How the Heart Approaches What It Yearns lyrics]

In the blue light of the belvedere motel
Wondering as the television burns
How the heart approaches what it yearns
In a fever I distinctly hear your voice
Emerging from a dream, the dream returns
How the heart approaches what it yearns

After the rain on the interstate
Headlights slide past the moon
A bone-weary traveler wait's by the
Side of the road where's he going?
I dream we are lying on the top of a hill
And headlights slide past the moon
I roll in your arms and your voice
Is the heat of the night i'm on fire

In a phone booth in some local bar and grill
Rehearsing what I'll say, my coin returns
How the heart approaches what it yearns
How the heart approaches what it yearns
