• Well, there was no reason to believe she'd always be there
  But if you don't put faith in what you believe in
  It's getting you nowhere
  'Cos it hurts, you never let go
  Don't look down, just look up
  Cos she's always there to behind you, just to remind you
  
  Two hearts, believing in just one mind
  You know we're two hearts believing in just one mind
  
  'Cos there's no easy way to, to understand it
  There's so much of my life in her, and it's like I'm blinded
  And it teaches you to never let go
  There's so much love you'll never know
  She can reach you no matter how far
  Wherever you are
  
  Two hearts, believing in just one mind
  Beating together till the end of time
  You know we're two hearts believing in just one mind
  Together forever till the end of time
  
  She knows (she knows)
  There'll always be a special place in my heart for her
  She knows, she knows, she knows
  Yeah, she knows (she knows)
  No matter how far apart we are
  She knows, I'm always right there beside her
  
  We're two hearts, believing in just one mind
  Beating together till the end of time
  You know we're two hearts believing in just one mind
  Together forever till the end of time
  
  You know we're two hearts believing in just one mind
  Together forever, til the end of time
  Two hearts two hearts, believing in just one mind
  Beating together til the end of time Writer/s: Lamont Dozier, Phil Collins

• James from Diamond Bar Ca Love It - Phil Collins with the Motown Magic - one of my fav 80s songs
• Mitchell from Liverpool, UkPhil Collins recalls in his autobiography that he wrote the lyrics for this and 'Loco in Acapulco' overnight on the Mexican set of Buster, after Lamont Dozier had presented him with music for both.
• Greg from Durham, NcThis song was the very first #1 played on Casey's Top 40 back on January 21, 1989.
• Mark from Austin, TxAnd a few years before Phil did it, Paul McCartney did it in the video for Coming Up. (Ok, Linda played one or two roles, but it was mostly Paul playing the 8 or so members of the band.)
  And I ask you, what video is better?
  I love Paul and I really like Phil up until about 1989...but I think Hey Ya is a better song than both of these. (Unless you count the live version of Coming Up. That blows all three tracks away.)
• Rusty from Lake Park, Mnthis song is one of the greatest songs in the world. Better than that emo punk @#$%
• Jason from New York, NyYears before Andre 3000, Phil Collins played all the roles in the "Two Hearts" video, playing each and every "bamdmember" performing the song, as well as playing the "Buster" film editor watching the song on TV. So, I ask you... which is the better video? "Hey Ya"... or "Two Hearts"?
• Andy from Arlington, VaCollins would later win the Oscar for "You'll Be in My Heart" from Disney's "Tarzan".
• Peter from Mistelbach, AustriaYes, I'm the first with an comment to this song. I like the song.
