When You Get To The Heart

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1: Barbara Mandrell]
Come sit beside me, you know how you excite me
Let's lock the world outside our door
Sometimes it gets so crazy, and we know that it's not easy
To find the time to love anymore

[Pre-Chorus: Barbara Mandrell]
All the things that we go after, they really just don't matter
That's not the way we started out
All we had was each other
And babe, that's what it's all about

[Chorus: Barbara Mandrell]
When you break it all down
And you strip it apart
There's just one thing that matters at all
When you get to the heart

[Post-Chorus: Barbara Mandrell]
When the smoke clears away
And we see where we are
We'll see all that really matters is love
When you get to the heart

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 2: Duane Allen & Barbara Mandrell]
So baby, let's get down to it, all we gotta do is do it
You know that we can work it out
'Cause we got each other
And babe, that's what it's all about

[Chorus: Barbara Mandrell & Barbara Mandrell & Duane Allen]
When you break it all down
And you strip it apart
There's just one thing that matters at all
When you get to the heart

[Post-Chorus: Both, Duane Allen, Barbara]
When the smoke clears away (When the smoke clears away)
And we see where we are (We see where we are)
We'll see all that really matters is love
When you get to the heart

[Outro: Both, Duane Allen, Barbara]
When you break it all down (Break it all down, yeah)
And you strip it apart (And you strip it apart)
There's just one thing that matters at all
When you get to the heart
