Photograph Smile: Way To Your Heart

About the Song....
"I like the sentiment and also the way it begins and finishes. Just the sound and the emotions. It's self explanatory really. It brings the emotional journey of the album to a close."

It also features a musical passage that refers to Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds, a song John Lennon based around a drawing Julian did when he was a small child. This deliberate reference to Julian's at times painful heritage highlights the album's themes of need, rejection and reconciliation.

"There was a time when I wanted to avoid anything and everything that had gone before," Julian admits. "I used to wonder how I was to forge my own path if all the time comparisons were going to be made. But now I realize they're never gonna go away, no matter what I do. But it's okay. That's my Karma."
- Julian Lennon on "Way To Your Heart"

The Lyrics

I wanna touch you
I wanna hold you
I want to love you
but not to mold you
I wanna feel you
I want to kiss you
I wanna leave you
so I can miss you.

Please, show me the way you are,
show me the answers to how I can start
to find the way to your heart.

I wanna see you...untangled
I wanna see you...from every angle
I can't hold back...things I've never told you,
I believe that love will come around again.

So please, show me the way you are,
show me the answers to how I can start
to find a way to your heart.

Open your eyes as you look to the skies
and you see her just floating on by.
Consciously try with the tears that you cried to hold on,
teach me to love once again.
Reach, if you can, for her angel - like hand
and pull her right into your heart.
Don't waste a day with your insecure ways,
she'll be gone - and you'll never see her again.

I wanna hear you...whisper softly,
say you love me...say it softly.

Please, show me the way you are,
show me the answers to how I can start
show me the way
show me the key that will open the door,
show me the way you are.
Show me the answers to how I can start
to find the way to your heart.

Show me the way you are,
show me the answers to how I can start
to find a way to your heart.

I wanna touch you
I wanna hold you
I want to love you
but not to mold you
I wanna feel you
I want to kiss you...
