Thank you so much Kristi and Justin for your beautiful collaboration with me. This song started from Kristi's moving and very beautiful lyrics. I composed music and we asked Justin whether he would be happy to sing this song. We were delighted to hear that Justin was interested. Here is the result of our collaboration on 50/90, a songwriting site inviting songwriters to create 50 songs in 90 days :)

lyrics

My Heart’s In the Right Place
©2020 Kristi McKeever (lyrics) and Nadia Cripps (music).

Better songs have been written
More instruments have been played
All more clever than I can be
As I send some love your way

A better singer tells a story
That lifts you up with their sweet voice
I’ve got an old piano
And I don’t make too much fuss

Chorus:
But my heart’s in the right place
Here with you
My heart’s in the right place
With all that I do
I write a few lines
In a song that rhymes
Hope you know in some small way
My heart’s in the right place

Smarter writers make you think
Pure poets with their pens
I’ll give you conversation
It’s a gift to all good friends

Duets may move you deeply
Harmonize in different keys
My voice may crack and falter
But it’s all a part of me

Chorus:
Oh my heart’s in the right place
Here with you
My heart’s in the right place
With all that I do
I write a few lines
In a song that rhymes
Hope you know in some small way
My heart’s in the right place

Bridge:

How do you say something
Like no one else before
I’ll climb a mountain of emotion
To give it something more

Repeat chorus
