Man, I read in the News today
They found a heart in a field
Guess it got me to thinking somehow
'Bout old Helmut's crazy ride

Pulling pictures and signs from the street
To piece together the truth
The heavy cross and the smouldering land
Printed face and the reaching hand

Why are you frightened?
The woods can't harm you
A step in time
And the trees will calm your mind
The path is clear
All you have to do is read it

They found a heart in a foreign field
They found a scar in the dawn
Between the road and the ripening corn
They found a heart in a field
They found a heart in a field

Then you're home in a different zone
Same old streets but somehow nothing's the same
Did you leave your heart in a foreign field?
The questions the sword and shield

Seems they never believed you, though
Your line was always focussed and true
So you left your heart in a foreign field
The vision will never yield

They found a heart in a foreign field
Blood beating fast in the dawn
Between the road and the ripening corn
They found a heart in a field
They found a heart in a field
They found a heart in a field
