The nerves are sending shimmering signals All through my fingers, the veins support Blood that gushes impulsively towards The triumph of a heart that gives all, that gives all The triumph of a heart that gives all, that gives all The stubborn trunks of these legs of mine Serve as pathways for my favorite fuel Heading upwards towards my kidneys The triumph of a heart that gives all, that gives all The triumph of a heart that gives all, that gives all Smooth, soft, red, velvety lungs Are pushing a network of oxygen joyfully Through a nose, through a mouth but all enjoys, all enjoys The triumph of a heart that gives all, that gives all The triumph of a heart that gives all, that gives all The triumph of a heart that gives all, that gives all The triumph of a heart that gives all, that gives all
