Lyrics:

People come and go, living other lives
Running everywhere at such a speed
Never taking time to open up their eyes
Never knowing where life leads
In the heartland, people everywhere
Try to share their hopes and dreams
In the heartland, on any given day
You can find your way back home
Take another breath and take another chance
Take another look at who you are
And get ready for your life, 'causes it's such a crazy dance
So open up and you'll go far
Into the heartland, people everywhere
Try to share their hopes and dreams
In the heartland, on any given day
You can find your way back home
We've been running so far away from where our lives belong
Will we ever get back to the rhythm of the heartbeat?
Do you ever feel sad for those whose hearts have turned to stone?
You are not alone

It's time to take it slow, time to take a rest
Time to leave the fast lane far behind
Life is hard enough, I know
But you can only do your best
To get it in your heart and minds
That in the heartland, people everywhere
Try to share their hopes and dreams
In the heartland, on any given day
You can find your way back home
In the heartland, people everywhere
Try to share their hopes and dreams
In the heartland, on any given day
