Hearts Of Oak

<br>i was walking along some downtown avenue.<br>i was whistling a new song to myself.<br>and it went, it went something like this on,<br>but i just couldnt get it to end.<br>but i was talking about this song to a friend of mine,<br>and she sang me a new song of her own.<br>she said, she said the cards are still stacked against her,<br>but she said she could still do it alone.<br>and i saw for all of us, she spoke:<br>&quot;wont you stand up for the hearts of oak?&quot;<br>i was listening to this song by this friend of mine.<br>i was feeling what she said, i was hearing her rage.<br>she said &quot;no weak, no weak heart shall prosper!&quot;<br>she said &quot;nothing`s wrong,<br>and i belong on this stage&quot; and i saw for all of us,<br>she spoke: &quot;wont you stand up for the hearts of oak?&quot;<br>and i saw her stand - she couldnt be broken.<br>and i saw her show her heart of oak<br>again and again and again and...<br>if you think, if you think, everything is cool (yeah, yeah),<br>can`t you hear, can`t you hear what the girl goes through? (yeah, yeah) <br>can you tell, can you tell me that it`s not true?<br>(no, no) can you find, can you find the heart of oak in you?<br>when the night, it ends, and you`ve awoken,<br>wont you stand up with your heart of oak again?<br>like the girl withstands<br>she cant be broken wont you stand up for the hearts of oak<br>again and again and again and...<br>i was walking along some downtown avenue.<br>i was sharing the sidewalk with my friend.<br>we were singing this song together and it sounded so good,<br>we said, we said &quot;let`s sing it again!&quot; (and it had <br>no end)...
