Lyrics
[verse]
Under the streetlight, shadows are turning gold
Every story that we never told
I keep your picture folded in my coat
Closer than a locket, closer than a note
[chorus]
Copper heart, spinning on a string
You're the quiet fortune that the evening brings
Copper heart, shining in my hand
Small enough to carry, big enough to understand
[verse]
I'm not a rich man, don't have much to give
Just a warm devotion for as long as I live
You laugh and suddenly the room feels bright
Like finding treasure in the dead of night
[chorus]
Copper heart, spinning on a string
You're the quiet fortune that the evening brings
Copper heart, shining in my hand
Small enough to carry, big enough to understand
[bridge]
No diamonds, no crown upon your head
Just soft words whispered as we go to bed
You're worth more than the moon could ever weigh
I'll keep you close and never give you away
[chorus]
Copper heart, spinning on a string
You're the quiet fortune that the evening brings
Copper heart, shining in my hand
Small enough to carry, big enough to understand
