About Way to Your Heart

"The Way to Your Heart" is a 1988 song, and only hit single, by Soulsister, a band consisting of Belgian songwriter/vocalist duo Jan Leyers and Paul Michiels. A mixture of pop and rock with a very Motown-sounding tune, the song is about a boy dreaming of a girl that he‘s in love with, but she doesn't answer his love. After the singles “You Get To Me” (originally as The Soul Sisters) and “Talk About It” they had a #1 hit record with “The Way to Your Heart” in Belgium. The Belgian release had no B-side and was thereby sold as a half price single. Afterwards a maxi single was released with a long version (5:18) and an instrumental version. The single was the opening track of their debut album It Takes Two, of which 700.000 copies were sold worldwide. In The Netherlands and Germany they reached the top 10. After its European success, the single was released in the US in 1989 where it went to # 41 in the Billboard Hot 100 and to #5 on Billboard Adult Contemporary. It was the only single by Soulsister that reached the Billboard chart.

Woke up this morning with my heart on fire
Held on to what I'd been dreaming
Woke up this morning I had one desire
To get back to what I'd been seeing

Heaven, it was heaven

I have never know any like this,
Witnessed anything like this
Glowing all over as I started on my feet
I thought that I heard somebody calling

Heaven, it was heaven

Now I know I've seen the light
Make it go on shining
I keep on searching for the way to your heart,
Try to believe it's getting better,
Please, take me all the way to your heart
I want you (ohohoho)

All the sweet kisses, all the tenderness
That I'm being shared all around it
Only remind me of my only stress
No loving arms to surround me

Falling, I am falling

You can help me out of there
Being mine forever
I keep on searching for the way to your heart,
Try to believe it's getting better,
Please, take me all the way to your heart
I want you (ohohoh)

You got it, you got it
There'll be no doubt about it
Nobody's going keep me from you - oh
I want you, I need you
I'll find a way to get through
Nobody is going keep me from you - uhuh

Heaven, it was heaven,

Now I know I've seen the light
Make it go on shining
I keep on searching for the way to your heart,
Try to believe it's getting better,
Please, take me all the way to your heart
I want you (ohohoho)

I keep on searching for the way to your heart,
Try to believe it's getting better,
Please, take me all the way to your heart
I want you, I want you (ohohoho)
