Ignorant Hearts Lyrics - Singles - Von Ra

We are lovers of improvements, we admire progressive movements 

We're the mortals of an age of many things 

And we harp on education, it's our foremost calculation 

And we praise the learned products that it brings 

Our professors brains are burning 

With the boundless store of learning 

For we think our minds' the most important part 

And the man who is commanding 

Is the man of understanding 

So we never think to educate the heart 

Ignorant hearts, there's nothing more to say 

Ignorant hearts, will we always be this way? 

When we want to last the longest 

Then we strive to be the strongest 

For we cannot win unless we can endure 

And we think we're up on learning 

When we know we're up on earning 

And we build a body that is strong and sure 

With a mind that's educated, and a brain that's graduated 

And a body that is taught to help us start 

We go out and take our chances 

In the winds of circumstances 

Having never thought to educate the heart 

(Chorus) 

Hoping this will cause no question, for it's only a suggestion 

And of course I still admit we're very smart 

But we lack one thing my brothers 

It's greater than all the others 

We should take the time and educate the heart 

(Chorus)
