I built these walls
A fortress strong
To harden my heart
In case the world does me wrong
But when you shut out love
You're shivering in the cold
Without someone to lean on
Without a hand to hold

Now I'm reaching out
To make up for lost time
Knowing you might be the one
To change my mind

Unfinished heart
Keep on beating
Against the odds
Keep on dreaming
I'm gonna keep this fire burning
Like a torch that lights a thousand stars
You could be the finishing touch
For this unfinished heart

I'm incomplete
I'm insecure
Cause there is something gone
That only one thing can cure
I need your hands
I need a shoulder
In the war of roses
I am a soldier

Now I see your smile
Your beauty head to soul
I see the other half of life
That could make me whole

Unfinished heart
Keep on beating
Against the odds
Keep on dreaming
I'm gonna keep this fire burning
Like a torch that lights a thousand stars
You could be the finishing touch
For this unfinished heart

So many roads to travel
More mountains left to climb
No matter what the odds
I will fight for you
I won't be broken hearted
This heart's just getting started
I'll do it all before I'm through

Unfinished heart
Keep on beating
Against the odds
Keep on dreaming
I'm gonna keep this fire burning
Like a torch that lights a thousand stars
You could be the finishing touch
For this unfinished heart
