Meg Barnhouse: Music

Your Place in My Heart

(Meg Barnhouse)
Bigger than a valentine, bigger than a throne for a queen, bigger than a truck full of feathers bound for New Orleans, bigger than a mountain in Peru where the Amazon starts, bigger than the sky in Nebraska is your place in my heart.
Not as little as a prarie wind, not as little as a forest fire, not as little as the thrill of a race that comes down to the wire, not as little as a May afternoon, not as little as a story that's true, not as little as the Milky Way is my love for you.
Sweeter than strawberry jam, sweeter than a yellow rose, sweeter than the feel of a baby when you play with its toes, sweeter than a song you can sing when you're no more than three, sweeter than a dream about flying is your love for me.
