There’s nothing deep about this one, just a doggoned good pop song. Very hummable, very listenable, and as far as I’m concerned, it still stands up well today.
Here’s a link to the video (love the spray painting of the boots)
And of course, the lyrics:
That’s what my heart yearns for now - love and pride.
That’s what my heart yearns for now - love and pride.
Start your journey early or maybe later
get your boots on
Look for rainbows
it’s cloudy
Take your hairdryer
blow them all away.
In you I’ve found a story I want to keep hearing.
In you I see all colours
not just black or white.
In you I find a reason and hope for all dreamers
You are my fill
you’re my supply of love and pride.
That’s what my heart yearns for now - love and pride. . . .
Knowing
sensing
seeing
eating
sleeping
that’s just being.
Touching
testing
loving
wanting and taking
more love and more pride.
In you I’ve found a story I want to keep hearing. . . .
I’m taking it round the world - some love and pride.
That’s what my heart yearns for now - love and pride. . . .
That’s what my heart yeanis for now - love and pride. . . .
