Jim Reeves Picture
Jim Reeves (1923 - 1964), known affectionately as 'Gentleman Jim', was a country singer known for his velvety voice. Through his unique style, which fused the laidback style of crooners such as Frank Sinatra and Bing Crosby with country material, he brought country music to a whole new audience. He was also one of the first to bring country music to places outside of America, gaining widespread popularity in Britain, Europe, South Africa and India. His prolific career was cut tragically short in 1964 by a plane crash. However, even after his death, his popularity did not wane and he continued to have hits some years after his death, with previously unreleased songs and remastered earlier material.

According To My Heart Lyrics

Jim Reeves

Accordin' to my hear-ear-eart
You're the one for me
The one love of my life is here
When you're with me
If someone stole your lo-o-ove
My heart would beat no more
For you're the one
My heart is always longin' for
'Though I don't know the reason why
My dreams don't turn out right
Still I'll keep listenin' to my heart
Who knows, someday they might
For accordin' to my hear-ear-eart
The future will be bright
And everyday I pray
That my heart knows what's right
Accordin' to my hear-ear-eart
You're the one for me
The one love of my life is here
When you're with me
If someone stole your lo-o-ove
My heart would beat no more
For you're the one
My heart is always longin' for
'Though I don't know the reason why
My dreams don't turn out right
Still I'll keep listenin' to my heart
Who knows, someday they might
For according to my hear-ear-eart
The future will be bright
And everyday I pray
That my heart knows what's right
