Lyrics
My Heart Away
My Heart Away
Trying to build a love that’s strong
I don’t want it to end
Trying to fix a few mistakes
And the ones not yet penned
Don’t want to carry
all the tools used to shape our past
So it’s time to find a new way
To make a love that will last
Took years to build all the love that we share
and only seconds to break
Seems like a lifetime just to repair
So please don’t make me hide
My heart away
Trying to find the trust we had
though it seems so far away
Trying to make you understand
I don’t want this child’s play.
Don’t want to carry
all the tools used to shape our past
So it’s time to find a new way
To make a love that will last
Took years to build all the love that we share
and only seconds to break
Seems like a lifetime just to repair
So please don’t make me hide
My heart away
INSTR BRIDGE
Took years to build all the love that we share
and only seconds to break
Seems like a lifetime just to repair
So please don’t make me hide
My heart away
Pieces
Time stood still, when I looked into your eyes
You made, your choice, that you don’t want me in your life
Love’s a strong word when you’ve learn to use it right
You won’t understand, what it means to hold one tight
You watched me give you my heart that you mistreated
All the things I’ve watched you take for granted
I called it right from the start, no I don’t need this
Sometimes the pieces just aren’t always meant to fit
It would’ve meant the world, for you to look me in the eye
If your listening now, here’s my final goodbye
Love’s a strong word when you’ve learn to use it right
You won’t understand, what it means to hold me tight
You watched me give you my heart that you mistreated
All the things I’ve watched you take for granted
I called it right from the start, no I don’t need this
Sometimes the pieces just aren’t always meant to fit
BRIDGE

INSTRUMENTAL – Guitar
You watched me give you my heart that you mistreated
All the things I’ve watched you take for granted
I called it right from the start, no I don’t need this
Sometimes the pieces just aren’t always meant to fit
You watched me give you my heart that you mistreated
All the things I’ve watched you take for granted
I called it right from the start, no I don’t need this
Sometimes the pieces just aren’t always meant to fit
repeat 2x
My Heart Away
In April, 2018, Avery released her 3rd full length solo project, ‘My Heart Away’. Comprised of all original music, one can discern that Avery has matured into a strong songwriter, with catchy melodies, compelling lyrics and a real sense of musicality, not often seen from someone so young.
This 3rd offering further moves Avery from her Jazz roots into more mainstream Soul/ RnB, which is exactly where she wants to be. Calling her sound contemporary soul, Avery hopes the music and words resonate with a wider demographic, as she shares her experience of love, loss, and happiness. The first single from that album, ‘Come Right Back To You’ debuted on the iTunes Canada Top 200 RnB/Soul song chart at #23, while the album itself debuted at #11 on the Canadian iTunes Top 200 RnB/Soul chart.
