From the song
Al Qalb القلب by SNX
A Moroccan and Arabic track about the heart. It opens with short breaths and refusals. He says he did all he could, and the argument is old. It has been many minutes and she is still on his mind, no. He remembers who he was before, when she only had to say let us go on, and in a second she won everything and he became bare. He tells her to take what she wants and he will give up his place, because he misses his heart. A moment is held for the eyes: what stays in the eyes does not leave them. Then the declaration comes, repeated: I love you. He does not know how to deal with her. He does not want her to calm down, because he likes to watch her. The word "heart" is chanted until the end.
Deeper meaning
The heart is the one who is lost and the one who speaks. He gives up his place and also admits he lost himself in a second. The key sentence is that he does not want her calm, because watching her is what he likes. The love is restless and accepts that.
